Ex. 7:11‑12• 11And Pharaoh also called the sages and the sorcerers; and they too, the scribes of Egypt, did so with their enchantments:
 12they cast down every man his staff, and they became serpents; but Aaron's staff swallowed up their staves. (Ex. 7:11‑12)
;
Ex. 8:18‑19• 18And the scribes did so with their sorceries, to bring forth gnats; but they could not. And the gnats were on man and on beast.
 19Then the scribes said to Pharaoh, This is the finger of God! But Pharaoh's heart was stubborn, and he hearkened not to them, as Jehovah had said. (Ex. 8:18‑19)

2 Tim. 3:8‑9• 8Now in the same manner in which Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, thus these also withstand the truth; men corrupted in mind, found worthless as regards the faith.
 9But they shall not advance farther; for their folly shall be completely manifest to all, as that of those also became. (2 Tim. 3:8‑9)

Rev. 16:2• 2And the first went and poured out his bowl on the earth; and there came an evil and grievous sore upon the men that had the mark of the beast, and those who worshipped its image. (Rev. 16:2)
• Evidently the burning had a connection with a religious rite, as the result of the ashes falling upon the priests rendered them unfit to serve before their deities. (“The Second Three Plagues of Egypt” by H.F. Witherby)
• Their gods had died, the sacred bull at Memphis, and that of Heliopolis, in the vicinity of which Pharaoh was, had perished of a cattle plague! Covered with their disease, these priests were not capable of even attending to their gods’ mummies! The sacred enclosure for the bull was empty, and his magnificent temple destitute of his presence, and the priests that prayed before him, or bewailed his carcass, could neither offer incense nor sing their hymns, till their own bodies were once more sound. Thrice had Jehovah struck them. He had deprived them of their rods of authority, He had deprived them of their enchantment power, and now He deprived them of their ability to proceed with their religious rites. We hear no more after this of the magicians; they “could not stand before Moses.” (“The Second Three Plagues of Egypt” by H.F. Witherby)
• We find that they “could not stand before Moses because of the boils” (vs. 11). They themselves have fallen under the punitive hand of God. We may therefore rest confidently, whatever the present seeming success of the evil one; for “the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly” (Rom. 16:20). (“Judgments Upon Egypt: Exodus 7-11” by E. Dennett)
