Hello.
Pesach was always a Yom Tov of great significance and highness for Jews. Lets try to put some meaning into it
*:namespace prefix = o />
Lets start with matza. Why do we eat it? You will be quick to tell me that it is a commemoration to the event of yetziahs mitzraim when the bread they took out could not rise until it was baked by the hot sun when it was on their shoulders- or that THEY baked it this way because they did not have a chance
But in the torah hashem tells the Yidden on the night of makas bechoros to eat matzoh and moror with the lamb. So what is it? Please telll me
What I mean to come to is, that matza is not a zecher for what happened at yetzias mitzraim- but it must have had some significance to HASHEM before that.
So the real reason for matza should be a symbol for hurry- which they practiced when running out of mitzraim- not a commemoration for the matza they ate. The same as with moror which is a symbol for bitterness
Of course the pesach which they ate bzman bhmkds''h was a comm. to the lamb they ate when they prepared to go out
