Portion Beshalach
                                                           

 
 
                               
"And he said, that hand on the throne of Go-d, the war to the Go-d in Amalek from generation to generation". (17, 16)
                                                          
End of the verse is translated by Rabbi Yonatan Ben Uziel this:  That is, the war in Amalek will end only during the messiah. Only the Messiah could identify who belongs to the race of Amalek, only in this period will be "firm hand to Israel." Therefore, only then can we keep the commandment of protest Amalek complementary.
 
However, even though today we have the commandment to protest Amalek - but only from spiritually. "Amalek" spiritual sense, according by the Midrash, coolness toward everything is holy. "Is not that a Jew should keep Torah and the commandments, but why get excited about the act?" Asks the "Amelk" in the heart of each one, he adds, explaining: probably used to you in learning Torah and commandment of prayer, so why get excited every day!" In this way, try Amalek cool the Jew's attitude to everything holy.

But, with the warmth of holiness, all the Jews fought Amalek and wipes out his memory from his heart. This is how we maintain the Amalek commandment spiritually, and this is a preparatory training for the physical sense as well commandment, the coming of Messiah.
