Midrash su II Cronache 26:10

"Noah, the tiller of the soil, was the first [vayyachel] to plant a vineyard (Genesis 9:20)": he was disgraced [nitchallel] and made debased [chullin]. Why? "To plant a vineyard". Should he not have planted something else to repair the world, a tree sapling or a tree cutting? Instead "To plant a vineyard"; from where did he acquire it? Rabbi Abba son of Kahana said: "He gathered to him planting vine shoots and saplings of figs, and cuttings of olives, and see! It is written: "For your part, take of everything that is eaten and store it away, to serve as food for you and for them (Genesis 6:21)": a man does not gather anything unless it is necessary for himself". "The tiller of the soil": there were three of them who were excited about the land to no benefit, and these are they: Cain, Noah, and Uzziah. Cain, "tiller of the soil (Genesis 4:2)", Noah "tiller of the soil", Uzziah: "and vine dressers in the mountains and on the fertile lands, for he loved the soil (2 Chronicles 26:10)". "The tiller of the soil": who made the face of the ground, and because of him the ground was preserved and by whom the entire face of the ground was filled. "The tiller of the soil": a stationed soldier, burgarius, is called by the name of his station, burg. Rabbi Berechya said: "Moses was favored for than Noah. Noah was called "a righteous man (Genesis 6:9)", he was called "the tiller of the soil", but Moses was called "an Egyptian (Exodus 2:19)", he was called "a man of God (Deuteronomy 33:1)". "To plant a vineyard": While he was walking "to plant a vineyard" the demon Asmodeus appeared to him and said to him: "Join with me! Though watch out that you not enter my side of the vineyard. If you enter into my side, I will hurt you".
