Verses 38-42Verses 30-37

      In that meeting, which was more a general consultation than a common gathering, Moses preached his doctrine with reason and wisdom, a brief of which is mentioned through the above verses. On the contrary, Pharaoh gave his views in irony and with mockery, mingled with some dictatorship! Therefore, Moses found it better to change the mode of his operation, and said to the king:ِ

      ``What then if I bring you a perspicuous sign from your Lord!? Will you still insist upon your power and prison!?''

      Pharaoh could have no other way but to admit Moses to show his miracles if he had any at all:ِ

      So the king said:ِ ``Bring it then if you are of the truthfuls.'' And Moses cast his stick, and Lo! It turned to a huge serpent in real movements, who frightened everyone who was present!

      In a second illustration, Moses drew his hand out of his arm-pit, and his hand was shining white to the beholders! The king felt that he was entrapped in a serious dead-lock. Now he could not take the matter so easy that he had thought at first, because Moses had attracted the attentions of all the chiefs of the court enough to cause a semi-revolt. This was when Pharaoh was far from yielding to truth, and was willing to keep and protect his Satanic Power at any price.

      On the other hand, the Egyptians were habitually given to magic and sorcery, when the true miracles were shown to them. This was an opportunity for the king to declare the miracles as witchcrafts, to his courtiers who were around him. He therefore, without any pause and pondering, said to those who were present:ِ

      ``Verily this is a well-versed sorcerer. And he wants to expel you from your land by his magic. What is your opinion and command then?''

      The chiefs too were perplexed, and could not know what was really the best to be done. They eventually said to the king:ِ ``Give them a time, and send summoners to the cities in order to bring to you all the well-versed sorcerers.''
