The Hebrew name Bigtha is a Persian name meaning 'gift of God' or possibly related to a Persian root for 'garden.' It belongs to one of the seven eunuchs/chamberlains who served King Ahasuerus in the book of Esther.
The servants of Ahasuerus — including Bigtha and his colleagues — provide the historical-court backdrop for the drama of Esther. The providence of God is at work in the Persian court even among those who do not know the God of Israel. That eunuchs with Persian names serve in the court where Jewish Esther and Mordecai will exercise their God-given influence reminds readers that divine sovereignty operates through all the intricate machinery of human power. Every name in Esther's court points to the hidden hand of God behind the visible actions of men.
