Talmud su Salmi 104:32

Elijah, may he be well remembered⁹⁹This is the regular honorific given to Elijah when he is mentioned in his dealings with men. One cannot say “his remembrance for a blessing” as is done for people who died, since he did not die., asked Rebbi Nehorai¹⁰⁰A student of Rebbis Joshua and Tarphon, of the fourth generation of Tannaïm; his statements are mostly aggadic.: Why do earthquakes occur in the world? He said to him, because of sin concerning heave and tithes. One verse says (Deut. 11:12): The eyes of the Eternal, your God, are permanently on it. Another verse says (Ps. 104:32): He who gazes on the Earth and it trembles, He touches mountains and they smoke. How can these two verses coexist? If Israel fulfill the will of the Omnipresent and separate their tithes following the rules, “the eyes of the Eternal, your God, are permanently on it from the start to the end of the year” and they will not be hurt by anything. If Israel do not fulfill the will of the Omnipresent and do not separate their tithes following the rules, “He gazes on the Earth and it trembles.” He said to him, my son, that is the reasonable explanation. But the main thing is that if the Holy One, praise to Him, sees theatres and circuses existing in safety and quiet, but His temple is destroyed, He is menacing¹⁰¹Greek ἀπειλῶν. His world to destroy it; that is what is written (Jer. 25:30): “He will roar on His Place,” about His place. Rebbi Aḥa¹⁰²This shows that in homilies, precedents (even from such an authority as the prophet Elijah) do not count. said, because of homosexual activity. The Holy One, praise to Him, said: You made your member tremble for something that is not for you; by your life, I shall make My world tremble because of that man. But the rabbis said, because of quarrels (Zach. 14:5): “You will flee by the valley of the mountains, for the valley of the mountains will reach Aẓel¹⁰³The relevant part of the verse is the one not quoted: “You shall flee as you fled because of the earthquake in the days of Uzziah, king of Judah.” Uzziah quarreled with the priests and wanted to usurp their functions in the Temple. The earthquake was on that day, when Isaiah saw the Seraphim flying in the Temple (Seder Olam Chap. 20)..” Rebbi Samuel said, an earthquake presages a change of government, as one says (Jer. 51:29): “The earth quaked and trembled,” why? “for the intentions of the Eternal overtake Babylon.”
