The Midrash says that because Avraham Avinu rested the three malachim under the three we were rewarded with the mitzva of Sukkah. The Ksav Sofer explains that the sukkah reflects the hashgacha and protection of Hashem, tzelah dehamnisa, shadow from above. When being in a temporary dwelling we are protected from the rain, sun as the tree needs sun and water to grow from above and people are protec6ed by the tree.
