The words "favor" and "kindness" here are probably a doublet or hendiadys that emphasizes how much the Esther pleased the king. The word translated "kindness" here is translated "favor" in [verse 9](./09.md); the word translated "kindness" is translated "favor" in [verse 15](./15.md) . Alternate translation: "greatly pleased him" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-hendiadys]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-doublet]])
