The Amalekites were a nomadic tribe known for their hostility towards the Israelites.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>The Amalekites were one of the ancient enemies of Israel, often depicted in the Bible as a symbol of opposition to God's people. They first attacked the Israelites at Rephidim shortly after the Exodus from Egypt (Exodus 17:8-16). The Amalekites were known for their guerrilla warfare tactics and were a persistent threat throughout Israel's early history. God commanded the Israelites to remember the treachery of the Amalekites and to eventually blot out their memory (Deuteronomy 25:17-19).<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/6002.htm">Amaleq</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>desc. of Amalek<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Amalekite (3), Amalekites (9).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">עֲמָלֵקִי</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective, of a people</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/30-13.htm">1 Samuel 30:13</a>; <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/1-13.htm">2 Samuel 1:13</a>, also (as predicate) <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/1-8.htm">2 Samuel 1:8</a>; collective = (<em>the</em>) <em>Amalekites</em> <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/15-6.htm">1 Samuel 15:6,15</a>; <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/30-1.htm">1 Samuel 30:1</a>, elsewhere with article <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">הָע</font> <a href="/interlinear/numbers/14-25.htm">Numbers 14:25</a>,43,45 (J; all + <font class="hebrew2">הַכְּנַעֲנִי</font>), <a href="/interlinear/1_samuel/27-8.htm">1 Samuel 27:8</a>; <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">שְׂדֵה הָע</font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/14-7.htm">Genesis 14:7</a>; <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">הַר הָע</font> <a href="/interlinear/judges/12-15.htm">Judges 12:15</a> (in Ephraim); read <font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">הָע</font> also <a href="/interlinear/judges/1-16.htm">Judges 1:16</a> (for <font class="hebrew2">הָעָם</font>) Bu GFM, > <font class="hebrew2">עֲמָלֵק</font> Hollenb Mey Kit<sup>Kau</sup>; on <a href="/interlinear/2_samuel/1-1.htm">2 Samuel 1:1</a> see foregoing. <p> I. <font class="hebrew2">עָמַם</font> </p><p style="sub1"> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> (√ of following compare Arabic <img src="/bdbgif/bdb076601.gif"> <em>be comprehensive, include</em>; <img src="/bdbgif/bdb076602.gif"> <em>company</em>; also <em>paternal uncle</em>; perhaps Assyrian <i><em>ummanu, people;</em></i> Sabean <font class="hebrew2">עם</font> either (<em>a</em>) <em>people</em>, or (<em>b</em>) <em>paternal uncle</em> CIS<sup>iv. p. 20</sup>; plural suffix <font class="hebrew2">אעממהו</font> = (<em>b</em>) Mordtm<sup>Himj.
