1 Esther, adventuring on the king's favour, obtains the grace of the golden sceptre, and invites the king and Haman to a banquet.6 She, being encouraged by the king in her suit, invites them to another banquet the next day.9 Haman, proud of his advancement, repines at the contempt of Mordecai.14 By the counsel of Zeresh he prepares for him a gallows. on the.4:16; Mt 27:64royal.1:11; 8:15; Mt 10:16; 11:8; 1Pe 3:3-5inner.4:11; 6:4sat.1Ki 10:18-20; Lu 22:30; Re 3:21Esther 8:15

So we are informed, in the History of the Revolt of Ali Bey, that on the election of a new {sheikh bellet,} or chief of the country, in Egypt, the {pasha} who approves of him invests him with a robe of valuable fur. Perhaps the crown was one of the insignia of the office of vizier.
