Magical arts in the Bible: Anyone you bless will be successful, but anyone you curse will fail. Numbers 22:6

The Magi are central characters in the Bible and the story about them begins when the Pharaoh has a dream that greatly distresses him, as recounted in the Book of Genesis, until the birth of Jesus, when he is visited by three kings who were also Magi.
Although these characters are described in a somewhat mysterious way, their existence as biblical characters responds to a very precise knowledge. The word magi comes from the Aramaic language that means doctor. And if it is metaphysically understood that each science has its doctor, of what science were the magi doctors? The Magi were the doctors of the highest and most perfect science, the science in which only God can train men: the science of wisdom. That is why when the Bible speaks of the magical arts, what it is talking about is the application of the secret knowledge of this perfect science, because wisdom exceeds human prudence and reason and is related to the invisible realities, and an example of this is the divination of dreams, a subject reserved in the Bible for magicians and prophets.
And also another example of the existence of these mysterious arts, the arts of the doctors of wisdom, can be seen in the Book of Numbers, when Balak, King of Moab, sent for a doctor named Balaam to curse the Israelites who were entering the land of Canaan. The King Balak resorted to Balaam's secret knowledge because weapons were not enough to stop such a large population. The Bible says that Balak spoke to the magi Balaam with these words: "They are too powerful for us to defeat, so would you come and place a curse on them? Maybe then we can run them off. I know that anyone you bless will be successful, but anyone you curse will fail" Numbers 22:6.
But what ultimately happened in this story is that Balaam could not curse the Israelites, because God had blessed them, the Bible relates. Wisdom with its secrets is spiritual power, but this power is first and foremost subject to God, to his eternal providence, and to the logical consistency of the universe.
