Rashi on Esther
You had better not fantasize. [I.e.,] “Do not think,” as in, “And it will be, that which I had thought.”4Bamidbar 33:56. Do not imagine to yourself, do not think to escape in the king’s palace on the day of the massacre, and therefore you do not want to endanger yourself now5Esther apparently wanted to delay going to the king. Mordechai therefore emphasized to Esther that she must not hesitate, but rather she must seize the moment and go immediately before the king and beg him to spare her people. by taking the risk of coming to the king without permission.
