וְנָתֹ֨ון הַלְּב֜וּשׁ וְהַסּ֗וּס עַל־יַד־אִ֞ישׁ מִשָּׂרֵ֤י הַמֶּ֙לֶךְ֙ הַֽפַּרְתְּמִ֔ים וְהִלְבִּ֙ישׁוּ֙ אֶת־הָאִ֔ישׁ אֲשֶׁ֥ר הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ חָפֵ֣ץ בִּֽיקָרֹ֑ו וְהִרְכִּיבֻ֤הוּ עַל־הַסּוּס֙ בִּרְחֹ֣וב הָעִ֔יר וְקָרְא֣וּ לְפָנָ֔יו כָּ֚כָה יֵעָשֶׂ֣ה לָאִ֔ישׁ אֲשֶׁ֥ר הַמֶּ֖לֶךְ חָפֵ֥ץ בִּיקָרֹֽו ׃

Bible Verse Review

bring him: Heb. cause him to ride

proclaim: Genesis 41:43, 1 Kings 1:33, 1 Kings 1:34, Zechariah 9:9

Reciprocal: 1 Samuel 18:4 - stripped himself 1 Kings 22:10 - having put Esther 6:7 - whom the king Jeremiah 43:12 - array

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And let this apparel and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes,.... The one,

that they may array the man withal whom the king delighteth to honour; and the other to be led in state before him:

and bring him on horseback through the street of the city; on another horse, that all might see what honour was done him:

and proclaim before him; as before Joseph, when advanced next to Pharaoh, Genesis 41:43 this was not to be done by an herald, but by a nobleman, to whom the apparel and horse were to be delivered, and was done by Haman, Esther 6:11,

thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delighteth to honour; these were the words said in the proclamation, signifying this was the man the king delighted to honour, and this the manner in which he would have it done.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Esther 6:9. One of the king's most noble princes — Alas, Poor Haman! Never was the fable of the dog and shadow more literally fulfilled. Thou didst gape at the shadow, and didst lose the substance.
