In Greek, the term for witchcraft is "φαρμακεία" (pharmakeia), which is derived from the root word "φάρμακον" (pharmakon), meaning "drug" or "medicine." In ancient contexts, it referred to the use of potions, spells, and magical practices, often associated with healing or harmful effects. The term has evolved in modern interpretations, sometimes encompassing broader themes of magic and sorcery. In biblical texts, "pharmakeia" is often linked to sorcery and the illicit use of magic.
