Haydock: Est 9:16 - Lives // Seventy-five

Lives. In many cases they would probably be attacked, as Aman's edict was perhaps still in force, as well as that of Mardochai. Hence both parties would be upon the watch. (Haydock) ---

Seventy-five. Roman Septuagint has only 15,000. Complutensian, 10,035. (Calmet)

Gill: Est 9:16 - But the other Jews that were in the king's provinces gathered themselves together // and stood for their lives // and had rest from their enemies // and slew of their foes 75,000 men // but they laid not their hands on the prey

But the other Jews that were in the king's provinces gathered themselves together,.... In a body, in their respective provinces and cities:

and stood for their lives; defended themselves against those that attacked them:

and had rest from their enemies; that selfsame day; all being destroyed by them, and none daring to appear against them:

and slew of their foes 75,000 men; that is, in all the provinces put together:

but they laid not their hands on the prey; See Gill on Est 9:7.
