Exodus 7:12
but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods—This was what they could not be prepared for, and the discomfiture appeared in the loss of their rods, which were probably real serpents.
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.

14 So the Lord said to Moses: a“Pharaoh’s heart is hard; he refuses to let the people go.
