The idiom "make bricks without straw" originates from the Bible, specifically in the Book of Exodus (5:7-19), where the Israelites were enslaved in Egypt and were forced to make bricks without being provided the necessary straw. The saying emphasizes that certain tasks require specific resources or conditions to succeed, and attempting to complete them without those essential tools or support will lead to poor results. It serves as a reminder that success often depends on having the right resources in place, and that lacking the basics can make even the most straightforward tasks impossible or ineffective.
