24.20 Principium. Non hoc ad historialem Amalec referri potest: non enim primus erat antiquitate; sed ad spiritalem, qui declinando populos a Deo et faciendo gentiles ex Dei cultoribus, Amalec nominatur. Et initium gentium dicitur, quia initium dedit, ut homines fierent gentiles mutando gloriam incorruptibilis Dei in similitudinem imaginis corruptibilis hominis: ut enim in populo Dei Christus est initium, sic in populo qui declinat a Deo, et gentilis efficitur Amalec. ORIG. Initium gentium Amalec, etc., usque ad et omnis secta quæ a Deo populum declinat, exponatur.

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

24:15-25 This prophecy provides more specific details than the first three. Based on another vision from the Almighty (24:16), it lists some of the enemies that Israel would defeat in the future and predicts the emergence of an outstanding leader who would play a major role in these military victories (24:17).
