Reply To: Water in Mitzrayim

I think the reason the Jews had no problem, was that all the 10 makot from Hashem were directed against the Mitzri and not the Jews. I read that the Egyptians dug round about the Nile, because the Nile was so contaminated with blood from the dead fish and worms. Sam2 I didn’t realize that the Egyptians built subterranean streams. This makes sense as the ground water would have been too contaminated and unsanitary to drink. The Nile was swarming with frogs, but Hashem removed the frogs from the Nile, and they died on the land in huge heaps.
