The Truth Comes Out

Name Date

Read the Story

The king and Haman came to Esther's second feast. The king asked again what she wanted. He would give her up to half of his kingdom. Esther asked the king to spare her life and the lives of her people. She said they had been sold to be destroyed.

The king asked who had dared to do this. Esther said the enemy was this wicked Haman. Haman was afraid before the king and the queen. The king got up in anger. He went out into the palace garden.

Haman stayed to beg Queen Esther for his life. When the king came back, he was even more angry. A servant told the king about Haman's evil plan for Mordecai. The king had Haman punished. Then the king's anger went away. Christians believe God protected His people through Esther's courage.

Courage at the Banquet

Name Date

Read and Think

The king and Haman came to banquet with Queen Esther. On the second day, the king asked once more what her petition was. He would give her even half of the kingdom. Esther asked that her life be given her, and her people at her request. She explained that they had been sold to be destroyed.

The king asked who had dared to do such a thing. Esther answered that the adversary and enemy was this wicked Haman. Then Haman was afraid before the king and the queen. The king rose in his wrath and went into the palace garden. Haman stood up to plead for his life with Queen Esther.

When the king returned, he was even more angry with Haman. Harbonah, a servant, told the king about the gallows Haman had made for Mordecai. The king commanded that Haman be hanged on it. The evil Haman had planned for others fell on himself. Then the king's wrath was pacified. Psalm 7:16 says the trouble a wicked man causes returns on his own head.

Esther 7 · Grade 5

Justice at the Second Banquet

Name Date

Read and Think

At the second banquet of wine, the king again asked what Esther's petition was, even to the half of the kingdom. The moment had come. Esther asked that her life be given her at her petition, and her people at her request. She said she and her people had been sold to be destroyed. She added that if they had only been sold as servants, she would have held her peace.

The king asked who had dared to presume in his heart to do so. Esther answered that the adversary and enemy was this wicked Haman. Haman was afraid before the king and the queen. The king arose in his wrath from the banquet of wine and went into the palace garden. Haman stood up to make request for his life to Queen Esther, for he saw that evil was determined against him.

When the king returned, he found Haman fallen on Esther's couch, and his anger grew. Harbonah, one of the eunuchs, pointed to the gallows fifty cubits high that Haman had made for Mordecai. The king commanded that Haman be hanged on it. So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai, and the king's wrath was pacified. Christians see in the reversal that God, though unnamed, brings justice. Christians remember that evil does not have the final word.
