Specially designed as collectors item and for family use, although wonderful as a usable deck - this deck has been designed with collecting and casual fun use in mind - not specifically cardistry or magic.
From creator Ben Green:
I love cards. I love collecting cards, playing cards, watching my friends and family play cards. I also love designing cards.
I find myself regularly backing projects and seeking out designs which reflect some of the great works of fiction from history, of literature and art. It is fair to say that most of the better known eras of history, the best known books and the most famous people have had a deck creating in their honour. Mythology and History alike.
Yet not the characters from the Bible? Great stories such as Jonah and the Great Fish (whale), Sampson and Delilah, The many amazing stories of Moses - there are too many characters to consider and some amazing and defining stories which have shaped our lives whether Christian or not.
I started designing this deck over a year ago, to build a deck I wanted but could not buy. As each card came together, my daughter insisted on getting involved in the creation (She's 4 so more of a muse...) but I realized as I was bringing each character to life as I saw them, my daughter was learning more about the bible, more about the stories and characters.
And so, I bring you my vision of 'Testament' a biblical themed deck of cards. With a huge caveat, each deck bears the seal; "On opening this deck, I agree to the condition of sale that the cards may not be used for gambling purposes". This is an art deck for the love of cards and the art from the bible, not for a gambling aid. Gambling is considered a sin among Christian and many religions, the concept of using the images of saints and biblical characters - and one could say double so of the family of Jesus and Abraham - in order to act out such a sin could be considered blasphemous and insulting to the religion.
This was a significant consideration whilst building this deck, but my mind was settled when conducting my research; I found the Catholic Church of England & Wales themselves use the image of Jesus as the King of Hearts and using cards to help the youth to reflect on their relationships.
Ethnicity was another consideration, and has been discussed in some length with religious and scholarly experts. I decided to stay in line with traditional western interpretations of the Bible characters as I have based my cards on my own experiences of the Bible.
Some of the best art in the world is inspired by, or directly taken from the bible, and whilst this deck may not be up there with the masters, I hereby present you with my deck: Testament, an art deck for the collector. For the love of cards and art of the bible.
Cain. There are many questions around the murder of Abel; some say he used his tools, some Abel's knife and some say the rocks around him were the first weapon and that a crow scratched the ground to show him how to bury the first body.
Eve. The Garden of Eden and the tree of knowledge. Eve holds the apple whilst the snake whispers encouragement into her ear.
Adam. The banishment from Eden, as Adam becomes ashamed of his nudity.
Diamonds:
Noah. After countless years at sea, the dove returns with the olive branch.
Miriam. She led the women out of exile as Moses led the men. She led them in song and dance.
Moses. Moses was of young middle age when he was led by the pillar of fire away from Egypt.
Spades:
Sampson. He who has slain the lion with bare hands, shall not be bound by twine, vine nor rope.
Delilah. Loved by Sampson, a temptress who betrayed him for silver.
Abraham. The ultimate sacrifice.
Hearts:
Joseph. Usually only portrayed at the nativity, Joseph's story starts as his rod bursts into bloom at the altar and his betrothal to Mary is determined. Though not technically in the new testament, it is a strong story to link his selection to raise Jesus as his own.
Mary. Again, most often seen at the nativity, or holding the baby Jesus. An image of her alone is not so common. I wanted to see her before the birth, as a woman.
Jesus. So many stories to see him in, but this is one of the most poignant for me - the moment of the transfiguration.

About Us
Dan Creek (Owner)
Performing Magic and collecting Playing cards for over 30 years!
Living in New York my entire life.
Once met a woman who Knew Harry Houdini!
Love making people smile & Laugh....
Best act yet is Producing 3 beautiful grown adults. 2 Sons and 1 Daughter. I am very proud of all 3!
Magic has been a part of my life for over three decades, intertwining with the vibrant energy of New York, a city that never sleeps. my passion for magic and playing cards is not just a hobby but a legacy, much like the legends of Harry Houdini that still echo through the streets of the Big Apple. The joy you bring to others through laughter and smiles is a true art form, and my greatest trick of all, raising three wonderful Children (Now adults), is a testament to the love and dedication I've invested. My life is a tapestry of enchantment, family pride, and the enduring magic of human connections.
"So, dear magician, continue to cast your spells. Whether on stage or in quiet moments, know that your part of a lineage that defies time. For magic isn’t about tricks; it’s about touching souls, leaving behind a trail of stardust in the hearts of those who witness it.
And as the curtain falls, remember: The greatest magic lies not in what we see, but in how we make others feel. "
