I have no clue which version you read from. Amalek is a spirit that hates Jews meaning those who live by faith in God. It again is up to you to kill that/those nasty littles ones' you have built-up within yourself.
Oh, bullshit! The Amelakites
were an actual race of people! There was nothing allegorical about the Book of Samuel! It was a book of
History. It was not a book of Poetry, like Psalms, Job, or Proverbs. It was not Prophesy, Like Ezekiel, or Daniel. It. Was. History. There was nothing interpretive about it. When you read Samuel, you are expected to believe that the events that occurred in Samuel happened
just as they were recorded.
Now, you wanna try that bullshit with someone who
doesn't understand how the Bible is divided, and is meant to be read?
