Sepher Shimmush Tehillim (Magical Uses of the Psalms)

This anonymous handbook belongs to the tradition of Jewish folk magic and records practical ways of using the Psalms for protection, healing, and other concerns of everyday life. Its historical interest lies in showing how scriptural texts were adapted for devotional and magical purposes, and inside readers will find short instructions pairing particular psalms with specific aims and circumstances.
