Lot 63:
A piece of rock from Mount Sinai, one of those rocks famed for the great wonder by which whenever they are broken, in any manner whatsoever, an illustration of the Snhe is revealed. They are a historical indication of the amazing biblical event: the Creator is revealed to Moshe in a burning Sneh (bush) that is not consumed by the fire.
Ancient tradition!
These rocks which are located on Mount Sinai and its surroundings were mentioned by Gedolei Yisrael hundreds of years ago including the Yavetz, the Arvei Nachal and more. They were also known by contemporary rabbis including the Gaon Rabbi Moshe Feinstein and the Gaon Rabbi Aharon Yehuda Leib Steinman, who owned such rocks.
