1 Samuele 15:5 Meaning and Commentary

1 Samuel 15:5

And Saul came to a city of Amalek
With his army, perhaps the nearest city of it to the land of Israel; though some think that Amalek was the name of the city, and was the metropolis of the nation, and had its name from thence: and laid wait in the valley; which was near the city, to intercept the inhabitants when they should come out against him: or "he contended" F23 as some render it, he fought with them there; the Targum,

``he ordered his army,''

set them in battle array, or pitched his camp there.

1 Samuele 15:5 In-Context

3 Ora va’, sconfiggi Amalek, vota allo sterminio tutto ciò che gli appartiene; non lo risparmiare, ma uccidi uomini e donne, fanciulli e lattanti, buoi e pecore, cammelli ed asini".
4 Saul dunque convocò il popolo e ne fece la rassegna in Telaim: erano duecentomila fanti e diecimila uomini di Giuda.
5 Saul giunse alla città di Amalek, pose un’imboscata nella valle,
6 e disse ai Kenei: "Andatevene, ritiratevi, scendete di mezzo agli Amalekiti, perch’io non vi distrugga insieme a loro, giacché usaste benignità verso tutti i figliuoli d’Israele quando salirono dall’Egitto". Così i Kenei si ritirarono di mezzo agli Amalekiti.
7 E Saul sconfisse gli Amalekiti da Havila fino a Shur, che sta dirimpetto all’Egitto.
