May 25, 2023 at 11:39 | comment | added | Tamir Evan | (1) Why are you trying to tie that quote from the Hagaddah to Amalek? (2) You're asking two seemingly separate questions ("sources for calling the enemies of the Jewish people 'amalek'" and "is the Hagaddah [in the quote] referring to anyone or a specific people"). Why not ask them separately? (3) Why not assume that, when it says "שֶׁלֹּא אֶחָד בִּלְבָד עָמַד עָלֵינוּ לְכַלּוֹתֵנוּ", that it is not referring a specific people, but each generation has/had it's own example(s)? | |
May 24, 2023 at 16:58 | comment | added | rosends | The quote begins by referencing the avot and their struggles but they did not fight against Amalek and their fights weren't even all physical. So the "they" is much more expansive. | |
