The Torah in the Tarot
A reproduction of the Jean Noblet Tarot de Marseille, created in France circa 1650, with an explanation of the Hebrew letters, Judaic ritual objects, Torah stories & Jewish holy days hidden in its images.
For 400 years the original intended meaning of the Tarot de Marseille has been a source of mystery, speculation and debate. When the cards are perceived through a Judaic lens of understanding, we can, at long last, recognize the Torah hidden in the Tarot.
Torah student and Tarot theorist Stav Appel has commissioned the French artist Florent Giraud of Tarotgraphe to produce a historically accurate reproduction of the Jean Noblet Tarot, to offer the only modern facsimile that accurately preserves the full scope of the deck’s original Judaica.
