4315. In the internal historical sense 'therefore the children of Israel do not eat the sinew of that which was displaced, which is on the hollow of the thigh' means that those descendants ought to know this. This becomes clear from the consideration that this was something serving to remind them about what they were really like, and so was something by which they ought to know this.
