God judges the righteous. There we learn that Rabbi Shimon ben Gamliel said, "Since the destruction of the Temple, there is no day without a sign of curse, and there is no dew that falls for a blessing, and the taste of fruits has been taken away." Rabbi Yehuda says that the oil of fruits has been taken away. Rabbi Shimon ben Elazar says that even purity has been taken away, as well as the fragrance and tithes. And the oil and grain have been taken away. The sages say that the prostitutes and sorcerers took all of these away since the destruction of the Temple, as it is said, "And [God] is angry every day." Rabbi Zeira said, "Each and every [generation] has [its own] difficulties." Rabbi Acha said, "By what merit do we stand? By the merit of the Priestly Blessing."
