Staffs and snakes

7:8 Staffs and snakes

8Then Yahweh told Mosheh and Aharon, 9When Far’oh tells you to perform a miracle as a sign, then just tell Aharon to take his[fn]staff and throw it down in front of Far’oh so it turns into a snake.” 10So Mosheh and Aharon went in to Far’oh’s court and did what Yahweh had told them: Aharon threw his staff down in front of Far’oh and his servants and it turned into a snake. 11Then Far’oh also called for his wise men and sorcerers, and the Egyptian magicians did the same thing using their magic— 12each of them threw down his staff and they became snakes, except that Aharon’s staff swallowed up their staffs. 13But Far’oh’s mind was made up and he took no notice of them as Yahweh had said earlier.


7:9 It’s not clear here in this account, or even in the following events, if Mosheh and Aharon had separate miraculous sticks, or if Mosheh had (temporarily?) entrusted his original staff/rod/stick to his brother and spokesman Aharon.
