Exodus 14:6-9

Miracle of miracles, or perhaps wizardry of wizardry...the Egyptian horses are resurrected for perhaps the second time at least and maybe the third, and strike out to attack the Israelites, but die in the Wizardry of Moses who parts the Red Sea with his serpent/rod and drowns the lot of them.....again. I could be wrong, but I don't think left over dogs or goats from the previous plagues could pull a chariot.

In all the events of the Exodus, what is the difference between Harry Potter and Moses? Nothing...

What's the difference...

* Exodus 14: Moses parts the Red Sea -with a serpent/staff. Joshua 3:16: Joshua parts the Jordan -when feet of Priests touched water

* 2 Kings 2:8: Elijah parts the Jordan -with his mantle

* 2 Kings 2:14: Elisha parts the Jordan -with magic mantle of Elijah

* Kings 18: Elijah calls fire to consume sacrifice

* 2 Kings 1: Elijah calls fire upon 2 army units

* 2 Kings 13:21: dead man resurrects when he touches Elisha’s bones

* 2 Kings 2-6: ELISHA: healed waters; she-bears; multiplying oil; unpoisoning food; multiplying food; strikes men blind, not to mention floating axes made to swim "because it was borrowed."

What's the difference between Moses, Elijah, Elisha and Harry Potter? One is in the Bible and one is in a popular book of fiction and adventure, is all.

What's the difference...

* 1 Kings 17:1; 18:45: Elijah commands rain (see also James 5:17) - pretty much a Wizardry thing

* Matthew 8:26: Jesus calmed the storm

* Matthew 14:25, 32: Jesus walks on water; calms a storm
