1 Samuel 15:7

1Sa 15:7 And Saul smote the Amalekites from Havilah [until] thou comest to Shur, that [is] over against Egypt.

Ver. 7. And Saul smote the Amalekites. ] So many as he could well come at; for many made escape, and they were still a nation in David’s days, retaining their old hatred and hostility against God’s Israel, derived to them from Esau their progenitor, and first founder. 1Ch 1:36 See 1 Samuel 27:8 ; 1 Samuel 30:1 .
