Is this a contradiction or am I reading it wrong? Genesis 5:28

[The Grand Nudger]

Still waiting for someone to quote an actual spell. No. Nothing. Right, because it is not a grimoire. Sure, the bible recounts supernatural events that are in modern colloquial writing "magical" but the texts themselves not magic books. What? Am I being unreasonably literal-minded?

Like the spell for bortin babies?

That the book itself, the whole thing, is quite literally magical is a very common belief even outside of all the magic the narrative contains.  I think that the more interesting wrinkle for contemporary christianity is a negative perception of it's magical contents and magical nature by christians, such as yourself. At some point, some number of people in all manner of abrahamic faiths stopped believing in the world or the words dreamt up by the constructors and authors of said stories, and now, see a world in those magic books far more mundane and far more secular than anything the originating peoples could have contextualized. Still, apparently, believing that they either have or have tried, really hard, to keep their own biases out. You're motivated in this defense of magic book by your own bias when, ofc, the book being magical isn't actually a bad thing for a magical god inhabiting a magical world, as it's magical sovereign.

I guess the people who still believe in such things are rubes, but they're faithful rubes nonetheless. Grimoires are interesting, too...and, actually, a fair number of them are based in abrahamic myths and hierarchy. So whenever we do finally exhaust the list of magic contained in magic book - that you keep thinking I won't have endless examples of, we'll have another trove of jewish and christian magic to discuss as well?
