refrained: Genesis 43:30, Genesis 43:31, Genesis 45:1, 2 Samuel 13:22, 2 Samuel 13:23, Ecclesiastes 7:9

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Nevertheless Haman refrained himself,.... From showing any outward resentment to Mordecai, from laying hands upon him or taking revenge on him, as being too much below him to avenge himself on a single person, when the whole body of the people Mordecai belonged to would shortly feel the power of his hand for such insolent treatment of him:

and when he came home, he sent and called for his friends, and Zeresh his wife; who, the Targum says, was the daughter of Tatnai, the governor on the other side the river, Ezra 5:3.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Zeresh - This name is probably connected with the Zend zara, “gold.” Compare the Greek “Chrysis.”
