The Lord Will

Esther 1:7

β€œAnd they gave them drink in vessels of gold, (the vessels being diverse one from another,) and royal wine in abundance, according to the state of the king.”

KJV

Read in Esther 1

Meaning

The verse continues the picture of excess and personalized luxury. The abundance of wine matters narratively because the king's later command concerning Vashti is issued during the culmination of this drinking feast.
