David and the Amalekite Flavius Josephus, Saul’s death is announced to David by the Amalekite who brings him the king’s crown and armband. In pain, King David tears his clothes. Wikimedia Commons (public domain)
As the temps in the Gazan terror tunnels rose
To a range between 1,400 degrees Celsius and 233 degrees Fahrenheit
The underground passage became a metro to hell
A 300 mile secret labyrinth
Turned into a hellish white heat incinerator
killing terrorists, exploding rockets and disintegrating reinforced concrete bunkers
White heat bombs turning tunnels of hate into crematoria
Crematorium with the words: The wrath of G-d scrawled on its walls
For revenge, vengeance and justice are his
But payback is hell for those living like rats in subterranean mazes
A purgatory of vaporized bodies
Vapors smelling like sulfur but tasting like justice
Old Testament vengeance
Angry mitzvot
Existential biblical justice
commanded in the 613
Saul’s two-edged sword forged of revenge and justice decapitated the demonic rapists and murderers
For committing unforgivable and unspeakable crimes
For the Amaleklites must learn
Jewish lives matter
Jewish lives are not cheap
So remember what Hamas did to the Israelites
Remember what Amalek did to us
Never forget
For Hamasian crimes must not be blotted out of our collective memories
This evil must be buried deep in the rubble of Gazan tunnels
