Command to blot out Amalek

Back to Bible Topic from Genesis to Revelation

Deut 25:17: Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way, when ye were come forth out of Egypt;

Deut 25:18: How he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of thee, even all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared not God.

Deut 25:19: Therefore it shall be, when the LORD thy God hath given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; thou shalt not forget it.
