About this listen

We often talk about reaching our potential, but is that enough?

In this fascinating session, Rav Shlomo Katz explores the Kabbalistic roots of Yitro and Moshe through the teachings of the Arizal and Reb Shlomo Carlebach. We discover that Yitro and Moshe are the rectifications (Tikun) of the very first brothers, Cain and Abel.


Rav Shlomo explains that the sibling rivalry of Genesis, where one brother refused to learn from the other, is healed when Moshe (Abel) humbles himself to learn from Yitro (Cain).

This episode teaches that the prerequisite for Matan Torah (Giving of the Torah) is "reaching beyond yourself"—going further than your nature dictates, whether you are a pagan priest becoming a Jew or a Prophet of God accepting advice from a newcomer.
