Reish Lakish Cannot Find Rabbi Chiya's Grave

The Gemara relates that Reish Lakish was given Divine assistance to locate and mark the burial places of the sages. This was to prevent Kohanim from becoming defiled accidentally. Also, this enabled supplicants to pray at their kevarim. Raish Lakish though was unable to locate the burial place of Rebbe Chiya. He perceived that this was a Divine sign that he was unworthy to enter the cave where Rebbe Chiya was buried. Raish Lakish became disheartened. He said to Hashem, “Did I not study Torah as well as Rebbe Chiya did?” A Heavenly Voice answered, “You studied Torah like him but you did not disseminate Torah like him.”
