וַיֵּצֵ֨א מֹשֶׁ֜ה מֵעִ֤ם פַּרְעֹה֙ אֶת־הָעִ֔יר וַיִּפְרֹ֥שׂ כַּפָּ֖יו אֶל־יְהוָ֑ה וַֽיַּחְדְּל֤וּ הַקֹּלוֹת֙ וְהַבָּרָ֔ד וּמָטָ֖ר לֹא־נִתַּ֥ךְ אָֽרְצָה׃
E Moshe saiu da presença de Paroh da cidade, e estendeu suas mãos ao Eterno, e cessaram os trovões e o granizo, e a chuva não caía mais sobre a terra.
Berakhot
It has been taught : They are stones which remained suspended [in the air] for the sake of a man and descended for the sake of a man. They remained suspended for the sake of a man, viz.: Moses; for it is written, "Now the man Moses was very meek" (Num. xii. 3), and it is written, "And the thunders and hail ceased, and the rain poured not upon the earth" (Exod. ix, 33). They descended for the sake of a man, viz. Joshua ; for it is written, "Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom is spirit" (Num. xxvii. 18), and it is written, "And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth-horon, that the Lord cast down great stones" (Josh. x. 11).
