Shabos Connection

Why is every Shabos also considered a reminder of leaving Egypt ?

Tosfos in Pesochim 117b explains that in Mitzrayim the Jews had to work at hard labor in all 39 categories of Melacha on Shabos.

Thus we celebrate every Shabos to be free from it.

Matza all year round

Who ate Matza all year round ?

All of the Mincha flour offerings at the Beis Hamigdosh and the Lechem haponim were all Matza. Thus Kohanim had them all year round.

6 Days of Work

The Torah uses a unique expression - for 6 days work will be done & the Shabos is holy a day of total rest all who doing certain forms of work are to be put to death.

Work will be done - is explained because Hashem runs the world.
We have to realize that it is all up to Him. We need to do some efforts with the realization that we cannot accomplish anything without His constant input.

Power of Crumbs

The Maharal explains that the root of the word Purim is from perurin which means crumbs.

Haman claimed the Jews were like crumbs and they should be discarded.
The Jews however reJewvinated themselves. They strengthened themselves & united to combine all the Jews to form a united front of Purim for Hashem !!
