Who Are the Agagite’s in the Bible? 
The term “Agagite” first appears in the Bible during the days of King Haman in the Book of Esther. It is used as an ethnonym. Some interpret the term to refer to the literal descendant of King Agag of the Amalekites, and others to a symbolic term for anti-semites. The Amalekites are a perennial enemy of the Israelites.
Haman
The Book of Esther features an antagonist named Haman. He was an official in the court of King Ahasuerus, who is traditionally attributed to Xerxes I, although he is also equated with Artaxerxes II. As the main antagonist in the Book of Esther, Haman was a major player in the court of the Persian kings.
The historical battle between the Jewish people and the nation of Amalek is the origin of Haman’s plot to destroy the Jewish people. Haman, a descendant of Agag, is aware of the Jewish victories over the Amalekians, and he plots to use that knowledge to destroy the Jewish people. These historical battles are recorded by Jewish texts.
Hammedath
The biblical character Hammedath is one of the agagites. The Bible describes this group as the enemies of the Jews. They were a pervasive, persistent enemy of Israel. The agagites had a long history of scheming against Israel.
King Xerxes promoted Haman, the son of Hammedath, the Agagite. He soon became the highest official in the government. Every servant of the king had to bow to him at the King’s Gate. However, Mordecai, a Jew, refused to bow to Haman. Upon hearing about this, the palace officials tried to talk with Mordecai. Eventually, Haman agreed to tolerate him because Mordecai was a Jew.
Hammedath’s sons
The Bible mentions some of the sons of Hammedath, but it’s not clear if they are the same as the Greek and Roman ones. The name “Nephilim” means “ancient champions.” Almost every culture has myths about gods having children with human beings. Hercules and other Greek heroes are familiar to many of us, but those stories were actually reimagined versions of the earliest Near Eastern stories.
Hammedath’s descendants
The Bible records the names of Hammedath’s descendants. The first one is Elam. The other is Asshur. Both are sons of Noah. Hammedath was married to Hagar, a maid. The descendants of Hammedath are referred to as the people of the east, but the Bible does not specify when Islam started.
Haman’s enmity towards Mordecai
Mordecai and Haman’s enmity towards one another in the Bible is explained by a couple of different explanations. The first is that Haman was an Agagite, a member of an Amalekite clan spared by King Saul. The second is that Mordecai was a Jew of the tribe of Benjamin. His ancestor was Kish, Saul’s father. The enmity between these two families goes back even further.
Haman’s enmity towards the Jews is further explained by the fact that he crafted a gallows to hang Mordecai. This is a clear example of Haman’s selfishness. His enmity toward Mordecai is not only unkind, but destructive as well. While his actions towards the Jews might seem like justification, the truth is that Haman’s actions were motivated by his own selfishness.
Hadassah
Esther was a descendant of King Saul. When she was young, she was taken away from her parents in the city of Shushan, and her cousin, Mordecai, took her in and raised her as his own daughter. Esther had an upstanding reputation, and she was described in the Bible as being the most beautiful woman of her time. Although she had a sallow complexion and a short stature, she was more beautiful than the Median women.
This Biblical historical fiction novel features a fascinating tale of a young Esther. Hadassah is described in first-person narrative, describing the events and people in her early life. Haman’s background is also interesting, and Bible scholars believe that he descended from King Agag and the Amalekites.
