Genesis 32:32-33
32. And the sun rose upon him when he passed over Faanoowwel. And he was
limping on his thigh.
33. Therefore, the Sons of Yishraael do not eat the sinew of the hip
which is on the socket of the thigh to this day, because He touched the socket
of Yaaqob’s thigh in the sinew of the hip. (original source: 2013TsedakaB_SullivanS, p. 78)
