Summary: Haman, who plots to kill the Jews exiled in Persia, exemplifies pride and its downfalls. His pride manifests itself in self-absorption, an inability to learn from his mistakes, a progression into more serious forms of evil, and a blindness to his own pride. Pride is overcome by forgetting oneself and clothing oneself in the overwhelming praise of the Father through Christ. This sermon was preached by Rev. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 29, 2007. Series "Esther and the Hiddenness of God". Scripture: Esther 3:1-6; 6:1-10
