In Religions Jewish Religion

Jewish Religion Incantations in Jewish History of reciting bible verses had to be considered lightly with certain rules because of dealing with the supernatural. The magician had to prepare for a rite of using magic for three days by purification, fasting, praying and studying. In order for the incantation to be successful the time had to be right. Examples of these times were during a new or full moon, before sunset and during the Sabbath was a favorable time to perform incantations. The words had to be recited in silence. The formulas used in Judaism had to be shown that it was experience through being tested and approved in the Jewish religion. In the Talmud commentary of the Torah it mentions that incantations are to be in the name of the mother. Another characteristic of Jewish incantations is when attached to a charm of a magical object the magical formula of a bible quotation is recited backwards and forwards. The concept goes for mystical names also. An example of this is a incantation found in the Talmud against a demon named Shabfifi.
