В первом месяце, который является месяцем нисана, в двенадцатом году царя Ахасауэра, они изливают пур, то есть жребий, перед Аманом изо дня в день и из месяца в месяц, в двенадцатый месяц, который является месяц адар.
Tze'enah Ure'enah
“Pur, which means lot was cast” [3:7]. He cast a lot for which month he should kill the Jews. The lot fell on the month of Adar. He said: in the month that Moses our Teacher died, the Jews will have no luck. However, he did not know that Moses our Teacher was also born in Adar.32B. Megillah, 13b.
Rashi
A pur was cast. Whoever cast, cast, and the verse does not specify who [cast the pur]. This is an abbreviated verse.
Rashi
Meaning “lot.” Scripture explains; and what is the pur? “That is the lot.” He cast lots [to determine] in which month he would succeed.
Rashi
For a specific day. On which day of the month he would succeed.4Haman felt gratified when the lot he cast resulted in the month of Adar, because Moshe died in that month so it was obviously an inopportune time for the Jews. (Maseches Megillah 13b)
