okay so paige uh let's see where we are over here okay um in uh um yeah uh so we get to uh we we're around uh now go to uh you'd alef parakeet of possible okay here we go page 346. page 346. um says to the egyptians so says hashem at approximately midnight i'm going to go out into egypt now the guard says that hashem didn't say that to moshe said to moshe at midnight moshe said to the power of sorcerers at approximately midnight so the guard says well why did moshe vayner can he change you know why did he change it to approximate midnight the answer is because you know god knows exactly when is midnight god knows exactly where it is exactly where that cutoff point is the egyptian sorcerers don't know the exact point therefore if the plague comes at what they calculate to be any before or after even slightly they'll say ah you missed which just shows you how abstinent people could be you know people are dying anyway but ah you missed that's i guess it's not the hand of god just show you how upset they are so mosher may have said to them at approximately midnight and not only that the commentaries say that it was so precise at midnight that they didn't even die in every place at the same time they died based on the turning of the axis
