sense in the lessons

In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: Slavery, above all the Israelites' slavery in Egypt. Egypt is called the house of bondage. The Prophets keep using this phrase when they remind Israel that God freed it. Interpretation: Remembering the bondage in Egypt is central to Judaism. Passover tells how God freed Israel, and it is why Jews are told to treat strangers and servants kindly. The prophets read the Exodus as the reason Israel owes God loyalty. In the primary lessons: in stories, bondage means being held down by a cruel ruler or by fear, and freedom ends it
