As his name was, so wash. The name Amalek hath a double notation applied to it. The first is this, a smiting people. The other, which is given by an ancient Father, is this, A King of the wicked. That which shall further be spoken of Amalek, will give evidence to both these notations, and demonstrate that he was a smiting people, and a King of the wicked.

Amalek (as also Israel) is a collective word: it compriseth under it the posterity of Amalek, even that people, that nation that descended from him. Now Amalek, the man that was the first head, and stock of this distinct nation, from whom the name was primarily taken, was Esau's grand-child, or nephew, For Amalek was the son of Eli 1pkaz, and Eliphaz the son of Esau, and Esau the son of Isaac, and brother of Jacob, who was also called Israel. So as the Amalekites were within three degrees of the same stock whereof Israel was.
