Kayin Returns to Sinai: Yitro and the Long Road to Techiyat HaMetim is not a historical class—it is an exploration of why revelation itself had to wait. Why does the parashah of Matan Torah bear the name of Yitro? What does reincarnation, brotherhood, gratitude, and resurrection have to do with standing at Sinai? Drawing on Chazal, the Arizal, the Zera Shimshon, and classic mefarshim, this class traces the long spiritual journey from the first murder in history to the moment Torah could finally descend.

Through Yitro’s arrival, the repair of Kayin and Hevel begins, emunah finds its final home after the splitting of the sea, and techiyat ha-metim emerges not only as an end-of-days belief, but as a way a Jew is meant to live every morning. This is a class about hearing and moving, healing old fractures, and living with gratitude for life returned. Join us for a thoughtful, source-based journey that reframes Sinai—and our own lives—through the lens of repair, humility, and resurrection.
