آسفة if this is the wrong place, I could not find one that looked appropriate...
In addition to my own reading, I'm taking Intro to the Qur'an through my university, and this week's set reading is all about the Prophet Moses(pbuh) - I'm clear in understanding of nearly all of it, but I don't understand the significance of this particular verse, and it's in nearly all accounts:
"And he drew out his hand, and behold! it was white to all beholders!" (7:108)
I don't understand...white? Another interpretation I read said "shining" but that doesn't help me, either...I think I understand that it was a way of proving to Pharaoh that he was indeed send by Allah, but...yeah. If anyone can help, I would be very grateful!
