Exodus chapter 7 describes how the Egyptian magicians also had rods that turned into snakes, as did Moses' brother AAron, whose snake swallowed up the other serpents. This passage comes from the Priestly author, who was at pains to emphasise the importance of the priestly caste and therefore of Aaron, who had been little more than a spokesman for Moses in the older version of Exodus.
