The foolishness of revenge.
"There is a certain people scattered and dispersed among the peoples in all the provinces of your kingdom; their laws are different from those of all other people and they do not observe the king’s laws, so it is not in the king’s interest to let them remain. If it is pleasing to the king, let it be decreed that they be destroyed." (Esther 3:8-9 NASB)
“To destroy, to kill and to annihilate all the Jews, both young and old, women and children, in one day, the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar.” (Esther 3:13 NASB)
"The king and Haman sat down to drink, the city of Susa was in confusion." (Esther 3:15 NASB)

“See how great a forest is set aflame by such a small fire.”James 3:5
Malice blots out life’s perspective.
“Be angry, and yet do not sin do not let the sun go down on your anger, and do not give the devil an opportunity." (Ephesians 4:26-27 NASB).
