Adam Clarke, on Esth 10:1
Adam Clarke · 1762–1832
Esth 10:1 · Douay-Rheims
“And king Assuerus made all the land, and all the islands of the sea tributary.”
On this verse:
“Laid a tribute upon the land - On the one hundred and twenty-seven provinces of which we have already heard. The isles of the sea - Probably the isles of the Aegean sea, which were conquered by Darius Hystaspes. Calmet supposes that this Hystaspes is the Ahasuerus of Esther.”
