Vayikra 23:43 למען ידעו דרתיכם כי בסכות הושבתי את בני ישראל בהוציאי אותם מארץ מצרים
“So that your generations will know that I caused the B’nei Yisroel to dwell in booths when I took them out from the land of Mitzrayim.” The Torah does not state that we should dwell in Sukkos because Klal Yisroel dwelled in Sukkos in the Midbar, rather the Torah stresses that we must sit in Sukkos because Hakodosh Boruch Hu caused Klal Yisroel to dwell in Sukkos when He took them out of the land of Mitzrayim. What is the Torah stressing to us by telling us that we dwelled in these Sukkos when leaving Mitzrayim? The following Divrei Torah will expound on this topic, and support the P’shat offered in the closing paragraph.
