This attractive hardcover edition includes commentary and transcription by Dr. Stephen Skinner and Daniel Clark, and it also features content derived from Frederick Hockley's manuscripts. This book is a very significant magical text with details of practice that are not found in other grimoires, and this edition--with its more than 200 pages of additional commentary and explanation--will be a treasure to those who have a passion for the historical underpinnings of occult magic.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePartial Table of Contents: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface: Ebenezer Sibley\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart 1.

He developed a serious interest in magic from a very early age with a particular focus on the grimoires. His interests range from Solomonic and Faustian traditions and demonology, to the more obscure esoteric areas of Japanese Onmyodo and Yokai mythology. Over the past few years Daniel has been striving to help important and often forgotten manuscripts of magic get digitized, and has tracked down and located many variant grimoires residing in universities and libraries around the world, many of which are still waiting to be re-discovered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 524\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 x 10.2 x 8.2 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 08, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51757158105376,"sku":"9780738762067","price":96.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/16f12249b0d4e2971ef2c73c61af2307.webp?v=1780095274","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/the-clavis-or-key-to-unlock-the-mysteries-of-magic-by-rabbi-solomon-translated-by-ebenezer-sibley-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
