"Magic and Divination in the Old Testament describes, vividly and sometimes chillingly, the occult practices of magic and divination with which the ancient people tried to protect themselves from harm. Humans, since time immemorial, have tried to discover and influence the will of spirits and deities that they believed to be in charge of their lives. As a result, all cultures have produced certain special individuals through to be closely in touch with the powers of the supernatural world. Was this true of ancient Israel? If so, who were the occult experts and what techniques were used by them?"--BOOK JACKET.
