אמר רב יהודה אמר שמואל
כל הנהנה מן העוה"ז בלא ברכה
כאילו נהנה מקדשי שמים
שנא' (תהלים כד, א) לה' הארץ ומלואה
Similarly, Rav Yehuda said that Shmuel said: One who derives benefit from this world without a blessing, it is as if he enjoyed objects consecrated to the heavens,
as it is stated: “The earth and all it contains is the Lord’s, the world and all those who live in it” (Psalms 24:1).

ר' לוי רמי
כתיב לה' הארץ ומלואה
וכתיב (תהלים קטו, טז) השמים שמים לה' והארץ נתן לבני אדם
לא קשיא
כאן קודם ברכה
כאן לאחר ברכה
Rabbi Levi expressed this concept differently.
Rabbi Levi raised a contradiction: It is written:
“The earth and all it contains is the Lord’s,”
and it is written elsewhere:
“The heavens are the Lord’s and the earth He has given over to mankind” (Psalms 115:16).
There is clearly a contradiction with regard to whom the earth belongs.
He himself resolves the contradiction: This is not difficult. Here, the verse that says that the earth is the Lord’s refers to the situation before a blessing is recited,
and there, where it says that He gave the earth to mankind refers to after a blessing is recited.

(3) He subjected you to the hardship of hunger and then gave you manna to eat, which neither you nor your fathers had ever known, in order to teach you that man does not live on bread alone, but that man may live on anything that the LORD decrees.
