BOOK
This thing shows up in Exodus 17:14: “Yahweh said to Moses, “Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: that I will utterly blot out the memory…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Exodus 17:14
“Yahweh said to Moses, “Write this for a memorial in a book, and rehearse it in the ears of Joshua: that I will utterly blot out the memory of Amalek from under the sky.””
