Kabbalistic Tarot is an introduction to the ancient kabbalistic origins and meanings of the tarot that reveals the intimate relationship of the tarot to the esoteric teachings of the Torah.

When the Greeks invaded Israel and forbade study of the Torah, the Jewish people began a secret method of Toranic study that appeared to be merely a simple way to fill time: playing cards. Fifteen hundred years later, in response to political and religious persecution, the cards resurfaced as a secret learning tool.

The author, Dovid Krafchow, shows the correspondence between the 22 major arcana cards and the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet and how the four suits correlate with the levels of the four kabbalistic worlds. He explores the kabbalistic meanings of each of the 78 cards and provides insight into the Tree of Life spread through detailed readings.
