And all the acts of his power, and of his might, and the declaration of the greatness of Mordecai, whereunto the king advanced him, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia?

For Mordecai the Jew was next unto king Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews, and accepted of the multitude of his brethren Who did not envy his greatness, as men most commonly do in such cases, but rejoiced in it, and blessed God for it, and praised and loved him... or his right & sweet management of his vast power., seeking the wealth of his people, and speaking peace to all his seed Or, for all his seed, to wit, the Jews, who were of the same seed and root from which he was descended. He spoke and acted with great Kindness and Friendliness to them, when they resorted to him upon any occasion..
