Definition
The use of rituals to influence people, events or manipulate the natural world. Widespread in the ancient world but forbidden in the Bible.
The Christian Bible consists of the Old Testament scriptures inherited from Judaism, together with the New Testament, drawn from writings produced from c.40-125CE, which describe the life of Jesus and the establishment of the Christian church.
