Turning staff into a snake is the first miracle, which is given to Moses. In Turkey, there are limited studies on the subject and these are done generally by focusing on Qur'an and Torah. However, the fact that the miracle took place in Ancient Egypt necessitates examining it in the context of the religious, cultural, and social life of Ancient Egypt. On the other hand, in the West, the issue is studied focusing on the Torah and Ancient Egyptian resources by ignoring the Qur'an. However, in this article, turning the staff into a snake will be discussed in the context of Ancient Egyptian culture focusing on the etymology of the keywords used in the Qur'an and the Torah. Therefore, it has a complementary aspect for the studies on the field.
