{Of their murders} (ek t(936e) phon(936e) aut(936e)). Heads the list,
but "sorceries" (ek t(936e) pharmak(936e)) comes next. Pharmakon was
originally enchantment, as also in  Re 21:8 , then drug. For
pharmakia see  Re 18:34  Ga 5:20 . The two other items are
fornication (porneias) and thefts (klemmat(936e), old word from
klept(935c), here alone in N.T.), all four characteristic of demonic
worship and idolatry. See other lists of vices in  Mr 7:21  Ga
5:20  Re 21:8  22:15 . Our word "pharmacy" as applied to drugs
and medicine has certainly come a long way out of a bad
environment, but there is still a bad odour about "patent
medicines."
