And Mordecai walked every day before the court of the women’s house, to know how Esther did, and what should become of her.
Every day, Mordecai would walk back and forth in front of the courtyard of the women's quarters, trying to find out how Esther was doing and what was happening to her.
This verse shows Mordecai's deep love and concern for Esther - even though he couldn't be with her in the palace, he came every day to check on her wellbeing.
📚 Historical Context
This takes place during Esther's year-long preparation to potentially become queen of the Persian Empire. As a Jewish exile in Persia, Mordecai had raised his orphaned cousin Esther, and now she was in the king's harem competing with other young women. Men were not allowed inside the women's quarters, so Mordecai could only walk outside and try to get news about her.
