Samuel said, As your sword has made women childless, so shall your mother be childless among women. Samuel hewed Agag in pieces before Yahweh in Gilgal.
"That Haman the ’Agagite’ (Esther 3:1; Esther 3:10; Esther 8:3; Esther 8:5; Esther 9:24) was an Amalekite is taken for granted by Josephus, who states that Haman’s determination to destroy all the Jews in Persia was in retaliation for Israel’s previous destruction of all his ancestors (Antiq. XI, 211 [vi.5])." [Note: Youngblood, p. 674.]
