And if so, why? In the face of a current inconclusive debate, using unsuitable definitions of magic, and likely entangled with twenty-first-century definitions, the second-century data is engaged to help re-sensitize a reading of the gospel data. There are clear charges of magic in the second century that enable twenty-first-century readers to see that observers of Jesus’ ministry charged him with magic, but not for the reasons usually assumed. Some contemporary implications of this study are taken up in a contemporary coda.enCC-BY - Uznanie autorstwacharismaticsdefining magicJesus Christmagicmiracle workerPentecostalsmiraclesmagicianbiblical studiesNew TestamentBiblekontrowersja Belzebubacharyzmatycydefiniowanie magiiJezus ChrystusmagiacudotwórcazielonoświątkowcycudamagikbiblistykaNowy TestamentBibliaPismo ŚwięteBeelzebul controversyArticle
