And I think about how, you know, when we

left Egypt we left with sandals and matzah

Okay.

And for anyone who's ever traveled with uh just even a baby overnight, you have to take diapers and wipes and pacifiers and blankets and pajamas and a change of clothes and everything.

And that's for one night for one kid.

Or if you've ever I don't know if your kids have gone to sleepaway camp, but

When my kids would go to sleepaway camp, it looked like I was packing them up for a transatlantic voyage.

And we think about we're told that at least six hundred thousand males above the age of twenty left Egypt.

So they kind of like play with those numbers and say that there were somewhere between two and a half and three million people who left Egypt.

We left without dental floss or bug spray or

Sunscreen or

Bubkis.

Like we left with nothing.

And yet we were provided for for 40 years.

And that is what we are celebrating on Sukkot.

So Pesach is really the exodus and sort of being set free.

But Sukkot is this long journey to freedom.

It's a deeper exodus in many ways.

I mean, you can Google it, but a a sukkah is a small temporary structure that we make that has to have at least two and a half sides to it.

I mean, there's a lot of halachic specifics about how high it can be, how short it can be, how big, how small, how many walls.
