Contextual Overview
1 Now came the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar, when the king's law was about to be carried out. It was the day when those who hated the Jews hoped to get the rule over them. But their plan was turned around, and the Jews ruled over those who hated them. 2 The Jews gathered in their cities in all the parts of the nation of King Ahasuerus to hurt those who wanted to kill them. No one could stand in front of them, for the fear of them had come upon all the people. 3 The princes of the nation, the rulers, the leaders, and those who were doing the king's work all helped the Jews, because the fear of Mordecai had come upon them. 4 For Mordecai was great in the king's house. His name spread through all the nation, for the man Mordecai became greater and greater. 5 So the Jews killed and destroyed with sword all those who hated them. They did as they pleased to those who hated them. 6 In the city of Susa where the king ruled the Jews killed and destroyed 500 men, 7 and Parshandatha, Dalphon, Aspatha, 8 Poratha, Adalia, Aridatha, 9 Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai, and Vaizatha. 10 These were the ten sons of Haman, the son of Hammedatha, who hated the Jews. But they did not touch anything that belonged to them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
On that day the number of those that were slain in Shushan the palace was brought before the king. Either by order of the king, that he might know how many enemies the Jews had in the city, and how many of subjects had been slain; or officiously by others, with an intention to irritate the king against the Jews.
