‏ Esther 3:2

3:2  a It was a common custom to bow down before a superior (e.g., Gen 33:3  b). Since Mordecai served at the large gate to the palace and Haman entered the king’s court through that gate, there were many opportunities for Mordecai to break the king’s command and not bow before Haman.
