The Torah forbids any kind of magic, voodoo, sorcery, necromancy, casting spells etc. Even sleight-of-hand tricks must be explicitly announced as such; otherwise they fall into this prohibition.

How does the Jewish faith differ from mainstream Christianity?
The primary differences between Judaism and Christianity are: Judaism's belief/practice is based on serving God by keeping His commandments (mitzvot) as given in the Torah (Pentateuch) and expounded and adapted by rabbinic interpretation. Christianity's belief/practice is based on atonement through the blood of Jesus, who is the Divine "Son of God" and keeping the teachings of Jesus and the apostles found in the New Testament. Judaism doesn't believe in "original sin," the divinity of Jesus, or Jesus as messiah. Christianity doesn't believe in salvation by keeping the commandments in Torah ("works righteousness"). Only those who accept Jesus divinity and atonement are saved.

Do people of the Jewish faith interpret the Torah literally?
No. There is no current stream of Jewish thought that interprets the Torah literally. As Maimonides pointed out in the 12th century, when the Torah speaks of "the hand of God", it is not referring to a flesh and blood hand. This is figurative language. Maimonides went on to note that the start of Genesis cannot be read literally. His book, "The Guide for the Perplexed" focuses on this issue.
