"And Mordecai walked every day before the court of the women`s house, to know how Esther did, and what would become of her." — Esther 2:11 (ASV)
And Mordecai walked every day before the court of the women's
house
Being one of the court, and in a high post, as Aben Ezra thinks, he might walk there without being examined, and called to an account for it:
to know how Esther did ;
to inquire of her health and prosperity, or peace, the word here used signifies, even all sorts of it:
and what should become of her ;
or was done to her, whether she was well used, or as yet introduced to the king, how it fared with her, and what befell her.
