Rejoicing at a Single Coin
Said the Riziner: "We read (Psalm 106:44): 'Nevertheless He looked upon their distress, when He heard their cry (of gladness).' This may be explained as follows: It is often easy to recognize a person's distress by the measure of his gladness. If a person rejoices because he has earned a single coin, we may discern thereby how poor he is. If he is joyful because his punishment has been suspended, we may know thereby how greatly he feared punishment."
