The Miidrash says ויסב אלקים את העם דרך המדבר Hashem took the nation in a round about way through the desert מכאן שאפילו עני שבישראל לא יאכל עד שיסב we see from here that even the poor of the Jews should not eat until reclining. Aren’t we taking yasev out of its meaning? The Jews in the desert had to completely rely on Hashem for His help of survival. Similarly, the poor should be happy and see themselves as the one in the desert because of their trust in Hashem that He will provide their livelihood and therefore be wanting to recline at the seder. We should feel like this poor person who relies on Hashem for his livelihood.
