Bible Verses About Harem: Persian household.

Then, when the girl went to see the king, whatever she wanted would be given to her as she went from the harem's house to the king's palace.

She would go in the evening, and on the following day she would return to another part of the harem's house and be under the care of Sha'ashgaz the king's officer in charge of the concubines. She would not go to the king again unless he was especially pleased with her and had her summoned by name.
