“So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king’s wrath pacified.”
So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king's wrath was pacified, demonstrating the execution of Haman on the very gallows he had prepared for Mordecai and the resolution of the king's anger through this act of justice. This moment represents the final reversal: the gallows prepared for the righteous man is used for the destruction of the wicked man who prepared it. The verse illustrates the theological principle that God works through the devices of the wicked to accomplish justice and the vindication of the righteous.
