    "The Torah commands: “A man or a woman who has a ghost or a familiar spirit shall be put to death; they shall be pelted with stones - their bloodguilt shall be upon them” (Lev. 20: 27), in this the Rabbis find an allusion to the instance of Saul: the “man” alludes to Saul and “woman” to the female necromancer."
