Context
3:13 Letters were sent by the runners to all the king’s provinces stating that they should destroy , kill , and annihilate all the Jews , from youth to elderly , both women and children , on a particular day , namely the thirteenth day of the twelfth month (that is, the month of Adar ), and to loot and plunder their possessions.
3:14 A copy of this edict was to be presented as law throughout every province ; it was to be made known to all the inhabitants , so that they would be prepared for this day .
3:15 The messengers scurried forth with the king’s order . The edict was issued in Susa the citadel . While the king and Haman sat down to drink , the city of Susa was in an uproar !
