Midrash su Sotah 9:13
רַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן בֶּן אֶלְעָזָר אוֹמֵר, הַטָּהֳרָה נָטְלָה אֶת הַטַּעַם וְאֶת הָרֵיחַ. הַמַּעַשְׂרוֹת נָטְלוּ אֶת שֹׁמֶן הַדָּגָן. וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים, הַזְּנוּת וְהַכְּשָׁפִים כִּלּוּ אֶת הַכֹּל:
Il rabbino Shimon ben Elazar dice: [la cessazione dell'osservazione delle] leggi sulla purezza ha rimosso il gusto e la fragranza, [la cessazione dell'osservazione delle] decime ha rimosso la grassezza del grano. Ma i saggi dicono: licenziosità e stregoneria hanno distrutto tutto.

THE CREATION ON THE EVE OF THE SABBATH
TEN things were created (on the eve of the Sabbath) in the twilight (namely): the mouth of the earth; the mouth of the well; the mouth of the ass; the rainbow; the Manna; the Shamir; the shape of the alphabet; the writing and the tables (of the law); and the ram of Abraham. (Some sages say: the destroying spirits also, and the sepulchre of Moses, and the ram of Isaac; and other sages say: the tongs also.)
