19 Therefore it shall be, awhen the Lord your God has given you rest from your enemies all around, in the land which the Lord your God is giving you to possess as an inheritance, that you will bblot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven. You shall not forget.

Deuteronomy 25:17-19

Remember what Amalek did—This cold-blooded and dastardly atrocity is not narrated in the previous history (Exodus 17:14). It was an unprovoked outrage on the laws of nature and humanity, as well as a daring defiance of that God who had so signally shown His favor towards Israel (see on I Samuel 15; 27. 8; 30).
