Sages, sorcerers, and sea monsters

Kevin Long Season 5 Episode 18

Did Aaron's staff turn into a serpent or a sea monster? Why did God turn the Nile River to blood? What happens when powerful people claim God's creation as a resource to be exploited?

"Sages, sorcerers, and sea monsters" is based on Exodus 7:8-25
