The Sixth and Seventh Books of Moses

The Sixth and Seventh Books of Moses are two grimoires that contain magical seals with letters in Hebrew and an unknown script; and the lists of names of demonic entities. Allegedly written by Moses it has instructions for spells and incantations to summon spirits with Talmudic magic names and words. The book claims to portray a secret knowledge that God gave Moses and which was hidden throughout the centuries.No complete manuscript has been found which dates earlier than this 1849 printing by Johann Scheible. The book became popular within communities that practised folk-magic Christian magic and was also used by Obeah practitioners becoming one of the central texts of Jamaican obeah. It also circulated throughout Scandinavian countries where it was known as The Black Bible.
