Abagtha
Who he was
Abagtha was one of the seven eunuchs who served King Ahasuerus, the Persian king who ruled during the time of Esther. He is mentioned only once in the Bible, along with the other six eunuchs: Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Zethar, and Carcas. These eunuchs were tasked with bringing Queen Vashti before the king when he wanted to display her beauty to his guests.
