Ancient Jewish magic refers to a range of magical practices and techniques employed by Jews from the Second Temple period through the Talmudic era. These practices are known through both textual and material evidence, including magical papyri, inscriptions, amulets, and incantation bowls, which illuminate aspects of popular religion that are only partially reflected in normative rabbinic literature.
