Question: When I read your comment about the Amalekites being extinct, I wondered about Haman, a descendant of Amalek. Doesn’t that prove they were not completely extinct?

Response: There might have been a surviving Amalekite here and there in those days, but that does not mean that Amalekites survived in any numbers, even at that time. Certainly there is no group today that would claim descent from the Amalekites.
