Amalek Part 1

from Back of the Beis Hosted by Reb Yosef and Yehuda R

This week, we bring you part 1 of our in-depth discussion about Amalek. If you've ever wondered what the big deal was about the nation of Amalek and why we are commanded to completely stamp them out, this podcast is for you! We begin with some talk about the olympics, then dive right into our Amalek discussion with an overview of the mitzvah to destroy Amalek (4:30), explain exactly what 'zachor' and 'timche' mean (8:30), explain what Amalek actually did (20), what they were trying to do (31), why we have to physically kill them (34), what our mindset should be (37), and why we must eradicate their memory (52).
