Fragment supposedly inserted into the book of Bereishit (Genesis) by the prophet Jeremiah and the scribe Baruch ca. 650-570 BCE (Paleo-Hebrew script). The editors mention the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) of the animal. See our commentary at the link: 650-570bcJeremiah_Baruch [Rus].

Bereshit 32:33

Translation

[Eng]

Bereshit 32:33

therefore the sons of Israel do not eat the sinew which shrank, which is on the hollow of the thigh, unto this day, because He came against the hollow of Jacob's thigh, against the sinew which shrank. (our correction-reconstruction of the version 1898YoungR, p. 23; the text of the insertion of the prophet Jeremiah and the scribe Baruch of the 6th century BC has been preserved)
