Description

This short article deals with understanding the Rambam's wording that once a year, we must arouse hatred for Amalek, and that it is a "constant" mitzvah. The difficulty that this commandment doesn't seem to jive with the love usually dictated by the Torah and which typifies the Jewish people & religion, is the key to its understanding.
