Note the first thing said in this passage is that we should not boast of what we will do tomorrow.

Note that the thought that please Haman was to do hang Mordecai.Ģ) It is cruel and outrageous and no one can withstand what comes from it ( Proverbs 27:1-4)

This is one of the main problems with anger and wrath is that in the end it leads us to think and do evil.

Here we see a direct command from the word of God to forsake wrath and cease from anger and not even to think about doing evil.

Warning from the word of God about Wrath : This is why the word God says that we should be angry and sin not ( Ephesians 4:26). Jesus was angry ( Mark 3:5) but he did not sin. One could define them as indignation is being very angry, while wrath is the actions that result from that anger. Now these two definitions seem to be the same and that is because they are closely related. Indignation – Extreme anger, mingled with contempt, disgust or abhorrence.* Wrath – Violent Anger, vehement exasperation and indignation. One is Wrath ( Esther 3:5) and the other is Indignation ( Esther 5:9).

It is important to note that Haman is said to be full of two things in the book of Esther. Now let us look at anger and wrath and see how it is so dangerous in our lives. Haman is then counseled by his family and friends to build a gallows and hang Mordecai on it, and this pleases Haman.įor the sake of this study of the dangers of wrath and anger in our life we will look ahead and see that at the end of chapter 7 we see that Haman is the one who ends up being hanged on the gallows that he built instead of Mordecai. As a result of this indignation we see that Haman goes home and tells his friends and family what blessing and honor he has received but that it means nothing as long as Mordecai the Jew is sitting at the king’s gate. But as he leaves he see Mordecai and Mordecai doesn’t stand up or move for him the word of God says that he is full of indignation against Mordecai. Haman leaves so excited and feeling honored that he is the only one who Esther as asked to the banquet. They go to the banquet and the king again asks Esther what her request is and her reply is for the king and Haman to go to another banquet on the next day that she will prepare for them.

The king asks Esther what her request is and she replies by asking him and Haman to a banquet that she has prepared for them. In chapter 5 we see that Esther goes in to see the king and the king accepts her into the inner court. We will look at this by studying Haman in chapters 5 -7. In this lesson we will see an example of how dangerous wrath and anger can be in our lives.

In this lesson we are going to continue to look at spiritual lesson for us from the book of Esther. A Study in the Book of Esther : Lesson #4 A Lesson in Wrath from Haman
