"These are the generations of the heaven and the earth when they were created" (Genesis 2:4). Their Creator praises them, who can disparage them? Their Creator extols them, who can put a blemish in them? Rather, they are lovely and praiseworthy. Rabbi Yudan said: by the merit of the Torah the world was created, as it is said, "these are the statutes and the ordinances and the teachings" (Leviticus 26:46).
Who Could Find Fault With a World the Creator Himself Praises
Yalkut Shimoni on Torah 17:2
אֵלֶּה תוֹלְדוֹת הַשָּׁמַיִם וְהָאָרֶץ בְּהִבָּרְאָם, בּוֹרְאָן מְשַׁבְּחָן מִי מְגַנָּן, בּוֹרְאָן מְקַלְּסָן מִי יִתֵּן בָּהֶם דֹּפִי, אֶלָּא נָאִין הֵן וּמְשֻׁבָּחִין. אָמַר רַבִּי יוּדָן, בִּזְכוּת הַתּוֹרָה נִבְרָא הָעוֹלָם, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (ויקרא כו, מו) "אֵלֶּה הַחֻקִּים וְהַמִּשְׁפָּטִים וְהַתּוֹרֹת".
