Subject: Amalekites show up in 1st sam 30:1..????

Bible Note: Hi The Amalekites defeated by Saul were seemingly roving in the Sinai peninsula which explains the presence of the Kenites. The Amalekites in 1 Sam 30:1 were a different tribal grouping from those slaughtered in 1 Sam 15. It was the latter who had caused the trouble to Moses. Amalekites wandered over the whole of the Arabian peninsula as well as over the Sinai peninsula. We are not told where the base of operations was in 1 Sam 30, only the areas that they attacked.
