“The king said: Who is in the court? Haman had come into the outer court of the king's palace, to tell the king to hang Mordekhai on the gibbet that he had prepared for him” (Esther 6:4). “To hang Mordekhai on the gibbet that he had prepared for him.” It is taught: He [Haman] prepared it for himself, and about him it is said: “Then against himself he readies deadly weapons, and makes his arrows sharp” (Psalms 7:14), and “He dug a pit and deepened it and he fell into the trap he made” (Psalms 7:16).
