1. Why does Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur Davening say "Zecher Leytziat Mitzraim", what is the connection to Exodus from Egypt? 2. Can I tie down the Schach of my succah with a wire? Thank you

Rabbi, During Yom Kippur we read how, during the torah reading, that 'uncovering the nakedness' of a women during their period may lead to being 'spat out from the jews' or even 'spiritual exorcision'. As someone who has sincerely repented for this act and did not realise the punishment when the act was committed, are these punishments still valid?
