Midrash for Chullin 120:22
(בראשית א, יד) והיו לאותות ולמועדים ולימים ושנים
On seeing that it would not be consoled the Holy One, blessed be He, said: 'Bring an atonement for Me for making the moon smaller'.
Sifrei Devarim
(Devarim 14:9) "This may you eat … (12) and this you may not eat, etc.": R. Akiva said: Was Moses a hunter or an archer (that he knew the signs of all the animals in creation)! Let this serve as a riposte to those who say there is no Torah from Heaven!
