Rujukan Talmud untuk Ester 6:11: Jerusalem Talmud Yoma & Megillah

³²This paragraph was added to the ms. by a corrector. While there is no logical necessity for the addition of this text, it is copied from a Yoma text, not from Berakhot. In Berakhot the quotes from Esther make sense, v. 6:11 preceding 6:12. The paragraph also is copied in Qonteros Aḥaron(Q, Chapter 1, Note 44; p. 311) which also quotes 6:12 before v 6:11. The text of Q is identical with that given here except that the Aramaic endings are ה not א; babylonized spelling is to be expected from all correctors.[Explanation³³Greek δήλωμα.: The great Rebbi Ḥiyya and Rebbi Simeon ben Halaphta were walking in the valley of Arbela before morning and saw “the morning hind” that started radiating. The great Rebbi Ḥiyya said to Rebbi Simeon ben Halaphta: Great man, so will be the deliverance of Israel; it starts out very small and grows and radiates as it goes on. What is the reason ³⁴Micha 7:8.When he³⁵In the biblical text: I.shall dwell in darkness, the Eternal is my light.

After that: ³⁹Esth. 8:15.Mordocai left the king’s presence in royal garb. After that: ⁴⁰Esth. 8:16.The Jews had light and joy.]

“Then Haman took the clothes and the horse.” He went and found [Mordecai] with the Rabbis sitting before him while he showed them the rules of the “handful.” When Mordecai saw him approaching and leading the horse, he became frightened and said to the Rabbis: This villain is coming to kill me. Get out of his way so that you should not be burned by his ember. Mordecai thereupon drew his robe around him and stood up to pray. Haman came in and sat down before them and waited until Mordecai had finished his prayer.

And proclaimed before him, “Thus shall be done to the man whom the king desires to honor.” (Esther 6:11) As he was leading him through the street where Haman lived, his daughter who was standing on the roof saw him. She thought that the man on the horse was her father and the man walking before him was Mordecai. So she took a chamber pot and emptied it on the head of her father. He looked up at her and when she saw that it was her father, she threw herself from the roof to the ground and killed herself.
