In this controversial and celebrated book, Glanvil[l] sought to demonstrate the existence of witches whom, he claimed had supernatural and magical powers. Glanvil argued that those who were sceptical about such witches were like the Sadducees, a Jewish sect, contemporary with Jesus, which denied the immortality of the soul.
