A חזן boasted to the רב “Look how my prayers are answered. On שמיני עצרת I said תפילת גשם and the sky filled with clouds and rain began to fall.” The רב, who knew the חזן well as a person who was מזלזל במצוות, smiled and said: “People like you have brought not only rain to the world, but even a flood.”
