Hi Lucy and EliYah,
Blessings to you through Messiah Yahushua, My YAHWEH and My ELOHIM!
Today is the only annual Sabbath that is directly referred to as a Sabbath. This Sabbath is commonly called the Day of Atonement. Believers are commanded in the Law to determine and proclaim the Holy Days so may I wish each of you a very happy Sabbath.
The Law commands this about witches and sorcerers:
Exodus 22:18
18
Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
In the LXX, the Greek word for a witch is used
Exodus 22:18 is found to be in the plural. This Greek word is pharmakous which is the accusative plural of pharmakos. Since both Lucy and EliYah actually equate this word to present day pharmacists, is it possible that Lucy should now advocate the use of medicines considering she is firmly against what the Law requires, and is it possible that EliYah should advocate capital punishment for all pharmacists since EliYah does teach that it is sin not to observe to do as the Law requires?
Below is a link to a forum which no doubt by its name promotes the use of cannabis. The thread below contains a lengthy study in a post on the truth about "pharmekeia" in the bible which both Lucy and EliYah should find very interesting:

The truth about "pharmekeia" in the bible."
Below is a scripture from the Apocrypha:
Sirach 38:4
4
The Lord created medicines (pharmaka) from the earth. He who is wise will not despise them.

Thanking you in advance should you be moved to declare whether pharmekeia is the practice of causing death through the giving of poison or the practice of healing through medicines derived from the earth, I am,
Sincerely, Latuwr
