the enemy : Est 9:10, Est 3:5-13

Pur : The word pur seems to be derived either from the Persian bahr and bar , a part, portion, lot, or pari , anything which happens fortuitously or fortunately; whence the annual festival in commemoration of the wonderful deliverance of the Jews from their enemies was called Purim, or in Arabic and Persian, Fuhr , or Lots ; which has been observed by them, in all places of their dispersion, from that day to the present time, without any interruption. Est 3:7

Gill: Est 9:24 - Because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them // and had cast Pur, (that is, the lot,) to consume them, and to destroy them

Because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them,.... Had formed a design to exterminate them from the whole Persian empire in one day:

and had cast Pur, (that is, the lot,) to consume them, and to destroy them; had cast lots to find out what would be the most lucky day in the year for him to do it on, and the most unlucky and unfortunate to the Jews; and, according to the lot, the thirteenth of Adar was pitched upon; this and the following verse give the reasons for observing the above two days as festivals.
