에스더 1:15의 미드라쉬
כְּדָת֙ מַֽה־לַּעֲשׂ֔וֹת בַּמַּלְכָּ֖ה וַשְׁתִּ֑י עַ֣ל ׀ אֲשֶׁ֣ר לֹֽא־עָשְׂתָ֗ה אֶֽת־מַאֲמַר֙ הַמֶּ֣לֶךְ אֲחַשְׁוֵר֔וֹשׁ בְּיַ֖ד הַסָּרִיסִֽים׃ (ס)
왕후 와스디가 내시의 전하는 아하수에로 왕명을 좇지 아니하니 규례대로 하면 어떻게 처치할꼬
Esther Rabbah
“According to the law, what shall be done to Vashti the queen, who has not done the bidding of Aḥashverosh the king [conveyed] by the officials?” (Esther 1:15).
Rabbi Yitzḥak said: For a pig,11Vashti. according to the law, and for a holy nation, not according to the law, but with cruelty.12Haman’s later plan to annihilate the Jews was not justified by law. “To Vashti the queen” – all the more so to a queen who is not Vashti.13According to the midrash, Vashti was from royal stock. Any other queen would be punished more harshly.
