In this text, evil Haman finally gets his comeuppance. Though he had built a gallows 75 feet tall to hang Mordecai, God providentially gave the king insomnia and had him reminded of the time Mordecai saved his life. So instead of sending Mordecai tot he gallows, Haman is forced by the king to honor Mordecai throughout the city of Susa. As we explore this text, we not only see God's providence in action, we see one of our deepest struggles: Pride!
