Hi,
"Rabbi Abba bar Kahana said: From the reward for ‘taking’ you may deduce the reward for ‘taking.’ In Egypt Gd said, ‘You shall take a bundle of hyssop.’ How much is it worth? Four coins. And that mitzvah caused Israel to receive the spoils at the Sea, the spoils of Sichon and Og, and the spoils of 31 kings. Lulav costs a person more money, and includes more mitzvot, how much more so will be the reward!
"Therefore Moshe warned Israel, “Take for yourselves on the first day.”"
(Midrash, Vayyikra Rabbah 30)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
