שמות פרק ז ט ּכִי י ְדַ ּבֵר אֲ ֵלכֶם ּפ ְַרע ֹה לֵאמ ֹר ּתְ נּו ָלכֶם מֹופֵת
The use of the word לכםis not understood. How is the sign to you? One might understand from the
concept the לכם – משלכם, which implies ownership (like by the Lulav and Estrog). Thus, Paroh is
telling Moshe and Aharon that they should prove themselves with a miracle of their own, particular
and unique, that could not be duplicated by Paroh’s own magicians. And in the end, that is what
happened when Arahon’s staff swallowed all the magicians’ snakes.
