How long did Mount Sinai remain holy ground?

Mount Sinai remained holy ground for quite a long time. The passage does not specify an exact duration; it only states that the place where Moses stood was holy ground and would remain that way for an extended period. No specific number of years or days is given.

Les explains that at the burning bush, God told Moses to put off his shoes because the place where he stood was holy ground. He notes that Mount Sinai would remain that way for quite a long time. The text does not provide a precise duration. In the same passage, God also identifies Himself as the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
