Haman was an arrogant man who demanded that everyone bow down to him, but Mordecai, who was faithful to his Jewish faith, [music] refused. Haman was furious and decided to take revenge not only on Mordecai, but planned a mass extermination of all the Jews. He convinced the king to sign a decree of extermination [music] set for the 13th of Adar. Queen Esther asked Mordecai to gather all the Jews and have them fast for 3 days and 3 [music] nights. After the 3 days of fasting day and night, Queen Esther gathered her courage and entered the king's [music] inner court. Esther, in her wisdom, invited the king and Haman to a banquet she had prepared and asked the king to attend another banquet the following day, to which he agreed. >> [music] >> The time came for the second banquet that Esther had prepared, where she revealed the truth.

The king, shocked [music] and astonished, asked, "Who is it that dared to do such a thing?" Esther, with great courage, pointed at Haman and said, "This wicked man is the adversary and enemy." The king rose in anger from the wine banquet and went out to the palace garden. Haman realized he was in danger. [music] He lay on the bed where Esther was, pleading for his life.
