Such as turning the Nile to blood and a stick into a snake. So which god do you suppose gave them the power to do that?

The Egyptians did NOT turn the Nile into blood. That was Moses!!

It was power given to them by Satan the Devil - Exodus chapter 7. Also it was Moses who turned the Nile into blood, it was one of the ten plagues brought on Egypt by God.

You don't know, it coincided with the destruction of Thera in the Cyclade Islands. The Nile was coated with pumice with high levels of iron oxide in it.

Satan did that as he tried to counterfeit the true miracles of God. However, you left out the part about how Moses performed the miracles of God and BESTED the Egyptian magicians.
For Taranto: Pharoah pronounced that curse on His own people. Moses warned him that it would happen and he did it, anyway.

They weren't true miracles, but simple magic tricks.
The important thing to see in this is that Pharoah kept hardening his heart, and the eventual result.
Pharoah kept hardening, so God reached the end, and hardened it for him. I guess you never can tell when God's patience will run out. God gave him what he chose...a hardened heart.

No doubt Satan, did you catch the part where God overcame
easily these magical feats ???? Put things in context and/or
tell the whole story.

Of course I can't remember that as I am nowhere near that old. And since history is a bunch of words on a pile of paper, I don't consider that valid either.
'god' is also a bunch of words on a pile of paper, so naturally I won't believe that one either. Please try to remember that words are the core of thought, not the core of truth.

One currently looking for a vacancy in the diety department I assume coz he/she/it/they don't seem to be around now. A snake stick could be a very trendy accessory :-)
