Who does Haman and his sons represent in the Book of Esther?

Question

It seems that they did not do so well in the long run..... Verses below:

"So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was the king's wrath pacified." (Esther 7:10)

"The ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews, slew they; but on the spoil laid they not their hand." (Esther 9:10)


**It is best to read the entire Book at one sitting.

The Bible states that Jesus spake in parables and without a parable He did not speak.. Christ is the Word of God-the author of the Bible. Therefore, the entire Bible is filled with parables. There is a Gospel message hidden within.

hossteacher-you have to follow the God's rules for understanding the Scriptures. In Mark 4:33, 34 the Bible says that Christ spoke in parables. Christ is God and so the entire Bible is written in parables wherein the Gospel message is revealed.

You should stop going to commentaries to get your info. The Bible is hwere you need to be studying.

Answer 1

There are some differences in focus between the Greek version and the Hebrew version.
Esther Replaces Queen Vashti (1:1-2:23)
No other source knows of a Persian Queen of this name.
Harman plots to destroy the Jews (3:1-15). He represents those opposed to the "Chosen People."
Mordecai represents all the Jews who tried to maintain their religious and ethnic distinctiveness in a foreign environment.

Answer 2

I spoke to a "secular Jew " in prison when I was going to the Jewish services and I asked some questions and the answers I got were interesting. It gave me the feeling that it really portrays how the Jews really feel about the Northern 10 tribes and Haman or Yahshua. Haman was a decendant of Esau and the Jews say that Jesus is the son of a Roman soldier. Rome is parabolically if not literally Esau in Rabbinic writings (who is spoken of very wickedly about in Talmud). The Master also gave the parable of the Prodigal Son as an illusion to how they feel (the elder brother, don't get deceived in an argument Judah is the elder brother even though Joseph was bestowed with the rights of firstborn). The prophets speak to this when they say that Ephraim and Judah won't vex each other any more when Messiah comes to restore the sticks of Yoseph and Yahudah. Now I believe that the real messiah Yahshua is a different person than the Jesus that the Druids/ Constantine / Pagan Jews ect. shoved off on the world. I believe the New Testament Speaks of Yahshua, and the scribes took His name out to replace it with the name of the pagan savior. (see Jeremiah 8:8 and 23:26-27) thus turning the scriptures into a lie. It was done once and people don't want to change. They love the LIE!

Answer 4

They were people that were fighting against the will of God with the intent of murder of a nation in their hearts.

To say that "they did not do so well in the long run" is a tad bit of an understatement to say the least.

Answer 5

Haman should be a warning to people who are used by satan to try and interfere with God's plans for the Jews.... Hitler didn't wind up doing so well either.
