Es 10:3
10:3 For Mordecai the Jew [was] next unto king Ahasuerus, and
     great among the Jews, and {a} accepted of the multitude of
     his brethren, seeking the wealth of his people, and
     speaking peace to all his seed.

     (a) These three points are here set forth as commendable
         and necessary for him that is in authority to have the
         favour of the people, to procure their wealth, and to
         be gentle and loving to them.
