Haman Is Hanged!

Haman was a proud, presumptuous man who fell into his own trap. As Alistair Begg recounts, when Esther risked everything and revealed her Jewish heritage to her husband, King Ahasuerus, he exploded in anger at Haman, who begged Esther for his life. In the end, though, Haman was hanged on his own gallows. Esther took action, and God worked through her to rescue His people, even though He was unseen. Haman’s fate reminds us that there is a higher throne above all earthly rulers, from which God orchestrates His purposes.
