Moses' staff vs Aaron's rod

Christian Alexander

I have been doing study on Moses. Does Moses' staff have the same power as Aaron's rod? The Jewish Encyclopedia states, "The Bible ascribes similar miraculous powers to the Rod of Aaron and to the staff of Moses (compare, for example, Ex. 4:2 et seq. and 7:9). The Haggadah goes a step further, and entirely identifies the Rod of Aaron with that of Moses."

Does Moses' staff have the same power as Aaron's rod?

This is an interpretative question that does not belong in the forums, plus what is meant by "same power" in this context is unclear. However, it appears that the Jewish Encyclopedia gave you a good start on resources. Wikipedia's articles on Aaron's rod and Staff of Moses will lead you to several additional resources. Factbook is worth a try as well. As simple concept map including them is included at TIP of the day: forum redux on mind maps, concept maps, etc. ... - Logos Forums
