SEV Biblia, Chapter 5:4

Y Ester dijo: Si al rey place, venga hoy el rey con Amán al banquete que le he hecho.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Esther 5:4

Verse 4. Let the king and Haman come this day unto the banquet] It was necessary to invite Haman to prevent his suspicion, and that he might not take any hasty step which might have prevented the execution of the great design.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 4. And Esther answered, if it seem good unto the king , etc.] She humbly submits it to his
pleasure, suggesting it would be exceeding grateful to her, could it be granted: let the king and Haman come this day unto the banquet that I have prepared for him ; for the king; and supposing it would be acceptable to him, and the rather engage him to come to it, she invited his favourite; and chiefly, that she might have an opportunity of accusing him before the king to his face, and when alone.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-8 - Esther having had power with
God, and prevailing, like Jacob, had powe with men too. He that will lose his life for God, shall save it, or find it in a better life. The king encouraged her. Let us from this be encouraged to pray always to our God, and not to faint. Esther came to a proud, imperious man; but we come to the God of love and grace. Sh was not called, but we are; the Spirit says, Come, and the Bride says Come. She had a law against her, we have a promise, many a promise, i favour of us; Ask, and it shall be given you. She had no friend to go with her, or to plead for her; on the contrary, he that was then the king's favourite, was her enemy; but we have an Advocate with the Father, in whom he is well pleased. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace. God put it into Esther's heart to delay her petition day longer; she knew not, but God did, what was to happen in that very night.
