7.17 Aquam fluminis, etc. STRAB. Aqua in sanguinem versa mundanam sapientiam significat, in qua omnis qui manserit necatur, sicut in sanguine piscis. Mundana enim sapientia stultum putat Deum pro hominibus mori; huic ergo quicunque adhæserit vivere non poterit. ORIG. Aqua fluminis vertitur in sanguinem, cui Hebræorum pueros tradiderant necandos, ut auctoribus sceleris poculum redderet sanguinis: et cruorem polluti gurgitis, quem parricidali cæde maculaverant, potando sentirent. Allegorice quoque aquæ Ægypti erratica et lubrica philosophorum dogmata sunt, quos parvulos sensu et intelligentia deceperunt: at ubi crux Christi lumen veritatis ostendit, necis suorum in pœnas et reatum sanguinis exiguntur. Unde: Omnis sanguis qui effusus est super terram, requiretur a generatione hac Matth. 23..

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

7:14-25 The first plague was the plague on the Nile, when the whole river turned to blood (7:20). The Egyptians correctly understood that without the Nile there would be no life in Egypt. They worshiped the Nile as the Mother of Egypt, but God showed that life is his to give or withhold.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

כֹּ֚ה אָמַ֣ר יְהוָ֔ה

thus he/it_had_said YHWH

This quotation formula is used to introduce commands from Yahweh. See [4:intro](../04/intro.md) for more information.

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / quotesinquotes

בְּ⁠זֹ֣את

in/on/at/with,this

This begins a third-level quotation that continues until the end of verse 18. It should be marked in some manner that distinguishes it from the outer levels. It is possible that the third-level quotation actually ends before or after Behold, in which case, in the rest of the quote I refers to Moses, not Yahweh.

הִנֵּ֨ה

see/lo/see!

Behold is a term meant to focus the attention of the listener on what the speaker is about to say. Alternate translation: [Look at this]
