Est 8:1-6. Mordecai advanced.

On that day did the king Ahasuerus give the house of Haman ... unto Esther - His property was confiscated, and everything belonging to him, as some compensation for the peril to which she had been exposed.

Mordecai came before the king - that is, was introduced at court and appointed one of the seven counsellors. Esther displayed great prudence and address in acknowledging Mordecai’s relation to her at the moment most fitted to be of eminent service to him.
