Esther - 6:2 Meaning

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
6:1-3 The providence of God rules over the smallest concerns of men. Not a sparrow falls to the ground without him. Trace the steps which Providence took towards the advancement of Mordecai.

He who commanded a hundred and twenty-seven provinces, could not command one hour's sleep.
