Did Aaron's rod turn into a crocodile?
Moses' rod used for the plagues should be distinguished from Aaron's rod that is similarly utilized for some wonders and plagues in the Priestly text. Aaron's rod also transforms into a crocodile (tannîn: Exod 7:9–10), and brings the plagues of blood (7:19); frogs (8:1 [ET 8:5]); lice (8:12–13 [ET 16:17]).
