    You don’t need to use each – you can just call the text method on your entire selection:

    $("div.block").text('Fill this writing of divs with the classname "block"');

    Incidentally, your problem above was that you were using each incorrectly 

    $("div.block").each(function(index, el){
    $(el).text('Fill this writing of divs with the classname "block"');
});
