Magic

“But Pharaoh called the wise men and sorcerers and magicians of Egypt, and they also did the same things by their magic arts.”

“But the magicians of Egypt did the same things by their magic arts. So Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he would not listen to Moses and Aaron, just as the LORD had said.”

“But the magicians did the same thing by their magic arts, and they also brought frogs up onto the land of Egypt.”

“The magicians tried to produce gnats using their magic arts, but they could not. And the gnats remained on man and beast.”

“and tell them that this is what the Lord GOD says: Woe to the women who sew magic charms on their wrists and make veils for the heads of people of every height, in order to ensnare their souls. Will you ensnare the souls of My people but preserve your own?”

“Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: See, I am against the magic charms with which you ensnare souls like birds, and I will tear them from your arms. So I will free the souls you have ensnared like birds.”

“And a number of those who had practiced magic arts brought their books and burned them in front of everyone. When the value of the books was calculated, the total came to fifty thousand drachmas.”
