Sorcery is a sub-type of witchcraft.

Let's recap - we have found that almost all of the major translations uses
witch. Those that don't use sorceror.
Bill, you can bluster all you like, but you are absolutely nailed on this,
and frankly sir, you know it !

You'll have to provide a dictionary cite for
that one, I'm afraid... at least it's steering
back on-topic!

Actually, I checked all the versions at BibleGateway.com and
while lots of them cite 'witchcraft', only the older KJV has
Exodus 22:18 with a witch... all the rest use 'sorceress',
which is kinda funny in a way, sort of revisionism.
'Sorceress' sounds more sexy and powerful, too...
