19 Tial, kiam la Eternulo, via Dio, ripozigos vin de cxiuj viaj malamikoj cxirkauxe en la lando, kiun la Eternulo, via Dio, donas al vi kiel heredan posedajxon, elvisxu la memoron pri Amalek el sub la cxielo; ne forgesu.

Napsal(a) Alexander Payne

Verse 19. Therefore it is a duty, when the Divine Love and Wisdom have given rest to the soul by reducing to obedience all the evils of the natural mind, when the soul begins to inherit the new life of good received as its own from the Divine Love and Wisdom, that false principles of this nature, which compromise with evil, must be utterly rooted out of the interiors of the mind; and their evil qualities constantly borne in mind. [Note.—Amalek signifies a people that licks up and takes away all. Temptations are an opportunity given by the Lord to obtain some virtue by resisting the contrary vice. If the opportunity is missed, the good intended for the soul is lost. The Lord cannot gift the soul with good except it will as of itself resist evil and do good when opportunity comes.]
