destroyed all the people
1 Samuel 15:8
15:8 destroyed all the people. This statement evidently applies only to the people of the particular Amalekite cities attacked by Saul. David later destroyed many of the Amalekites (I Samuel 27:8-9; 30:1,17) and Saul himself was eventually slain by an Amalekite (II Samuel 1:5-13).
