The Holy War
Exodus 17:8-16
Skip Heitzig
Exodus 17 (NKJV™) | |
8 | Now Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim. |
9 | And Moses said to Joshua, "Choose us some men and go out, fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand." |
10 | So Joshua did as Moses said to him, and fought with Amalek. And Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill. |
11 | And so it was, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed. |
12 | But Moses' hands became heavy; so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it. And Aaron and Hur supported his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. |
13 | So Joshua defeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword. |
14 | Then the LORD said to Moses, "Write this for a memorial in the book and recount it in the hearing of Joshua, that I will utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven." |
15 | And Moses built an altar and called its name, The-LORD-Is-My-Banner; |
16 | for he said, "Because the LORD has sworn: the LORD will have war with Amalek from generation to generation." |
