Jewish Magic before the Rise of Kabbalah (Raphael Patai Series in Jewish Folklore and Anthropology)

When I first looked at the book (Kindle), the photos of artifacts included didn't load. I thought they were missing, but it turned out that it just takes a long time for them to download. Just FYI.

After a decade focused on a magical Jewish life... JMbtRoK has reminded me there is still so many more fascinating things to learn about my magical heritage. Love it, thank you! P.s. Arrived in perfect condition!

very happy with my purchase! the book is very well made and feels heavy

I love the subject matter in this book, makes you think. Great book and author.

I think if one is looking for a greater history of the Hebrews especially in the English language it becomes increasingly difficult to look in one place only or to presume bible study only will quench your thirst. Books such as this are hidden gems (amulets) that can unlock many mysteries. Easy reading and skimming.
