Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And the maiden pleased him,.... Not the king, into whose presence she was not yet introduced, but the chamberlain; her beauty and her behaviour recommended her to him, and he concluded within himself
that she was the person that of all would be acceptable to the king: and she obtained kindness of him: had favours shown others had not: and he speedily gave her things for purification; as oil, spices, &c. that she might be the sooner fitted to be had into the king's presence: with such things as belonged to her; food and drink from the king's table; the Targum interprets it gifts, as chains and royal apparel: and seven maidens, which were given her, out of the king's house; to wait upon her the seven days of the week, as the same Targum: and he preferred her and her maids unto the best place of the house of the women; removed her and them to it, which was the most splendid, had large, airy, and pleasant rooms.
