Context: Arisai is listed among the ten sons of Haman, who was an enemy of the Jews during the reign of King Ahasuerus (Xerxes I) of Persia. Haman, an Agagite, plotted to destroy the Jewish people throughout the Persian Empire. However, his plans were thwarted by Queen Esther and her cousin Mordecai. As a result, Haman and his ten sons, including Arisai, were executed. The account of their demise is recorded in Esther 9:9, where the names of Haman's sons are listed as part of the narrative describing the Jews' victory over their enemies. The execution of Haman's sons was part of the Jews' defense against those who sought their destruction, and it is commemorated during the Jewish festival of Purim.
