Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Exodus 7:22

_ _ And the magicians ... did so with their enchantments, etc. — Little or no pure water could be procured, and therefore their imitation must have been on a small scale — the only drinkable water available being dug among the sands. It must have been on a sample or specimen of water dyed red with some coloring matter. But it was sufficient to serve as a pretext or command for the king to turn unmoved and go to his house.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Exodus 7:14-25.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Exodus 7:22

And the magicians did so — By God's permission with their enchantments; and this served Pharaoh for an excuse not to set his heart to this also, (Exodus 7:23,) and a poor excuse it was. Could they have turned the river of blood into water again, it had been something; then they had proved their power, and Pharaoh had been obliged to them as his benefactors.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Exodus 7:22

And the magicians of Egypt did (g) so with their enchantments: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, neither did he hearken unto them; as the LORD had said.

(g) In outward appearance, after the seven days were ended.
