מדרש אויף איוב 38:26

“Because the Lord God did not cause it to rain upon the earth, and there was no man…” – were it not for man, there would be no covenant made with the earth to cause rain to fall on it, as it is stated: “Who would…bring rain on land with no man, or on a wilderness with no person in it?” (Job 38:26).

(Devarim 11:12) "A land which the L-rd your G-d inquires after": Rebbi says: Does He inquire after it (Eretz Yisrael) alone? Does He not inquire after all the lands, viz. (Job 38:26) (He makes it) "rain upon a land without a man, a desert in which there is no person." What is the intent, then, of "a land which the L-rd your G-d inquires after"? — It is as if He inquires only after it. Because He inquires after it, He inquires after all the other lands along with it.
