Hi,
"Esther 7:6 says, 'And Esther declared: A man, a foe and an enemy, Haman, this wicked man.'
"R' Elazar said: This teaches that she pointed to Achashverosh, and an angel came and struck her hand to turn it toward Haman."
[I believe R' Elazar is sensitive to the placement of Haman's name later in the sentence, indicating that she was pointing elsewhere first.]
(Talmud, Megilah 16a)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
