George Leo Haydock, on Esth 9:25
George Leo Haydock · 1774–1849
Esth 9:25 · Douay-Rheims
“And afterwards Esther went in to the king, beseeching him that his endeavours might be made void by the king’s letters: and the evil that he had intended against the Jews, might return upon his own head. And so both he and his sons were hanged upon gibbets.”
On this verse:
“And. Hebrew, “But when she came.” Septuagint, “and how he came to the king, asking leave to hang Mardochai. But his machinations against the Jews, turned upon his own head; and so,” &c. (Haydock)”
