   Exodus 7:19.  I thought only the Nile was turned to blood.  In my mind what is so amazing is that the river Nile itself turned red.  Can any magician do something in this magnitude?  But the pharaoh’s magician did turn the Nile red… The catch is…can they turn it back?  Also, it seems all the water, even in containers was also turned into blood.  I never thought the significance of this.  Where’s the punishment there?  Now I realized, without the water in the Nile, even those in containers, what would the Egyptians drink? Of course this was mentioned in verse 24… But, although I must have read this before… It’s like this is the first time I’m reading this!  How blind can I get, huh?

   Exodus 8:5-9.  And with the plague of the frogs, I wonder why only the frogs in the Nile remained?  To have “frogs” for punishment… maybe because they are slimy? :)  Or can you imagine what a racket they’d create with their croaks? :)
