In each and every generation, a person is obliged to see himself as if he left Egypt, as it is stated (Exodus 13:8); “You shall explain to your son on that day: For the sake of this, did the Lord do [this] for me in my going out of Egypt.” Not our ancestors alone did the Holy One, blessed be He, redeem, but He redeemed us together with them, as it is stated (Deuteronomy 6:23); “He took us out from there, in order to bring us [here], to give us the land which He promised to our fathers.”
