Sfinga leads the gang through the spiraling words and worlds of Near Eastern incantation bowls. Rife with the poetics of exorcism and courtly judgement, and populated with a cast of satans, liliths, "no-good-ones", and the gods, angels, and even rabbis who bind them, this episode considers the cunning of the Syriac and Jewish Babylonian Aramaic genres of bowl texts—and extrapolates on the sorcerous technologies to integrate from their legalistic frameworks.
