Transcript SINAI. 263 spectators that when th< loads were thrown out in the valley die)' appeared like living and writhing snak But Moses put an end to the illusion, for his rod (the rod oi which in the Cor'an he says to God, " It is my rod whereon I lean, and with which I beat down leaves for my flock, and I have other uses for it, such as to drive away wild beasts from my flock, to carry my bottle of water, to stick up and hang my upper garment on to shade me from the sun") when cast down devoured all the rest, so that even the sorcerers believed. Pharaoh became exceedingly angry, and said, " Verily he is the great sorcerer who has taught you all, but ye shall suffer for this." The Cor'an describes certain plagues which were inflicted for a special act of impiety on Pharaoh's part. He had had a great tower made, and from it had shot an arrow into heaven ; this fell at his feet covered with blood, and he said, M I have slain the God of Moses!" An interval of forty days occurs between each plague. The taking away of one plague Pharaoh declared to TrlE CLIFFS OF JEBEL HAMMAM FAR'UN. The altitude given in the " Ordnance Survey Map " for Jebel Hammam Far'un is 1,567 feet.
