Gill's Notes on the Bible

But the Jews that were at Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth day thereof, and on the fourteenth day thereof,.... Of the month Adar; that is, they gathered together to defend themselves, and destroy their enemies, on both these days, having the decree renewed for the fourteenth as they had for the thirteenth:

and on the fifteenth day of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness; as the Jews in the provinces did on the fourteenth.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See Esther 3:13 note.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Esther 9:18. The Jews - assembled - on the thirteenth - and on the fourteenth — These two days they were employed in slaying their enemies; and they rested on the fifteenth.
