Esther 3:9
9If it pleases you, declare that they may be destroyed, and I will weigh out ten thousand talents to the keepers of your treasury.” ▼▼5:9Appendam means to weigh, but it also means to hang (as to hang on a balance or scale when weighing). Haman wants to condemn the Jews to death by hanging ten thousand talents on monetary scales. Yet he himself is killed by being hung on the scales of justice and hanged on the gallows.(Conte)
