Methodist 1832 · Commentary on the Whole Bible, Esther 6:13

Adam Clarke, on Esth 6:13

Adam Clarke · 1762–1832
Esth 6:13 · Douay-Rheims
“And he told Zares his wife, and his friends, all that had befallen him. And the wise men whom he had in counsel, and his wife answered him: If Mardochai be of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou canst not resist him, but thou shalt fall in his sight.”
On this verse:
“But shalt surely fall before him - The Septuagint adds, ὁτι ὁ Θεος ὁ ζων μετ' αυτου, for the living God is with him. But this is a sentiment that could scarcely be expected to proceed from the mouth of heathens, such as these were.”
