Esther 2:13 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Then thus came every maiden unto the king; whatsoever she desired was given her to go with her out of the house of the women unto the king's house. Whatsoever she desired - When any of the young women were called to go to the king, it appears that it was an ordinance that whatever kind of dress stuff, color, jewels, etc., they thought best to set off their persons, and render them more engaging, should be given them.
