בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא נָתַן הַמֶּלֶךְ אֲחַשְׁוֵרוֹשׁ לְאֶסְתֵּר הַמַּלְכָּה אֶת־בֵּית הָמָן צֹרֵר (היהודיים) [הַיְּהוּדִים] וּמׇרְדֳּכַי בָּא לִפְנֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ כִּֽי־הִגִּידָה אֶסְתֵּר מַה הוּא־לָֽהּ׃

That day, King Achashverosh awarded Queen Esther the estate of Haman, the oppressor of the Yehudim. And Mordechai appeared before the king, for Esther had told him how he was related to her.

מה הוא לה. איך הוא קרוב לה:

How he was related to her. How he was related to her.

8:2

וַיָּסַר הַמֶּלֶךְ אֶת־טַבַּעְתּוֹ אֲשֶׁר הֶֽעֱבִיר מֵֽהָמָן וַֽיִּתְּנָהּ לְמׇרְדֳּכָי וַתָּשֶׂם אֶסְתֵּר אֶֽת־מׇרְדֳּכַי עַל־בֵּית הָמָֽן׃ {ס}        

The king removed his ring, which he had confiscated from Haman, and presented it to Mordechai. And Esther authorized Mordechai to take custody of Haman’s estate.
