From a Shiur by Mrs. Shira Smiles - Parshat Bo: Investing With Interest
Why do we celebrate the day we went out of Egypt and not the day that we entered Eretz Yisrael? Mrs Smiles gives the mashal of a slave who runs away from a difficult master and after much struggling and many nisyonot he becomes the servant of the king. Would he celebrate the day he ran away or the day that he entered the palace of the king? The answer is that we are different. We became servants of Hashem, our King, the night we left Egypt and not when we entered Eretz Yisrael.
