Exodus 7:17

¹⁷Thus saith Jehovah, In this thou shalt know that I am Jehovah: behold, I will smite with the rod that is in my hand upon the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.

Exodus 7 marks the beginning of God's direct confrontation with Pharaoh through a series of miraculous signs and judgments. Moses and Aaron, empowered by God, perform the first sign of Aaron's staff turning into a snake, which consumes the staffs of Pharaoh's magicians. This initial display of divine power is met with Pharaoh's hardened heart, setting the stage for the first plague: water turning to blood. The chapter vividly portrays the escalating conflict between the Lord's omnipotence and Pharaoh's stubborn resistance, demonstrating God's unwavering commitment to deliver His people.
