Commentary

Commentary on Esther 6:12

Theological / Devotional

Came again. Mordecai returned to his former condition and employment. The king considered the honor thus shown Mordecai a sufficient reward. From an Oriental point of view, this would have been of more symbolic and practical value than a cash reward.

His head covered. A sign of mourning (see 2 Sam. 15:30).
