Aaron’s Miraculous Rod

8 Then the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
9 “When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, a‘Show a miracle for yourselves,’ then you shall say to Aaron, b‘Take your rod and cast it before Pharaoh, and let it become a serpent.’ ”  
10 So Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, just aas the Lord commanded. And Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it bbecame a serpent.  
11 But Pharaoh also acalled the wise men and bthe sorcerers; so the magicians of Egypt, they also cdid in like manner with their enchantments.  
12 For every man threw down his rod, and they became serpents. But Aaron’s rod swallowed up their rods.
13 And Pharaoh’s heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, as the Lord had said.

Exodus

EXODUS, a "going forth," derives its name from its being occupied principally with a relation of the departure of the Israelites from Egypt, and the incidents that immediately preceded as well as followed that memorable migration. Its authorship by Moses is distinctly asserted by himself (Exodus 24:4), as well as by our Lord (Mark 12:26; Luke 20:37). Besides, the thorough knowledge it exhibits of the institutions and usages of the ancient Egyptians and the minute geographical details of the journey to Sinai, establish in the clearest manner the authenticity of this book.
