Reply To: Beshalach – Tefila

Part of tefila is laining. The GRA explains why Moshe Rabbenu was told to write zechiras amaleik, the remembrance of ameleik in the sefer and make Yehushua hear the proper pronunciation. The sefer Torah has no nekudos, vowels so the word zecher can be read as Yaov thought zochor, only killing out the males of amaleik.
