Esther 2:7
2:7 Now he was acting as the guardian
of Hadassah
(that is, Esther), the daughter of his uncle, for neither her father nor her mother was alive.
This young woman was very attractive and had a beautiful figure.
When her father and mother died, Mordecai had raised her
as if she were his own daughter.
Esther 7:8
7:8 When the king returned from the palace garden to the banquet of wine, Haman was throwing himself down on the couch where Esther was lying. The king exclaimed, “Will he also attempt to rape the queen while I am still in the building!”
As these words left the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face.
