How could the Egyptian magicians mentioned in Exodus Chapter 7 Verses 19 through 23 have changed ANY water to blood as Moses and Aaron did if Moses and Aaron had already changed it ALL?

Answer 1

There are at least 3 possible answers to your question. 1. The magicians may not have turned water to blood, but only appeared to do so through "magic." Just a magician today appears to make a rabbit appear out of an empty hat. 2. If you read the verses closely, you get the idea that only the Nile's water was turned to blood by Moses. Since the Nile was the major source of water, eventually, every container would be filled with blood. But, initially, there could be fresh water in containers that were filled before the Nile was turned to blood.

3. You could also ask 'But how did the Egyptians survive without water?' The answer is that the Egyptians were able to buy water from the Jews.

Note that verse 24 says that the Egyptians dug around for fresh water. This implies that water from sources other than the Nile was not polluted. This makes sense since the plagues were not visited upon the Israelites. Thus, they must have had another source of water. a pedo a spaz who has downsyndrome
