Director Michael Wrote:See for example Isaiah 66:24. Also there is punishment "midah k'neged midah" - measure for measure.

Is the expression "midah k'neged midah" used in Tanakh?

No. But it does appear in the Talmud and Midrash, as cited a few times by Rashi in his explanations of Divine punishments that are written about in the Five Books of Moses. One example is in the story of the Tower of Babel (Genesis 11:7).

How does the Tower of Babel event as related in Bereishis show that HaShem punishes and rewards "measure for measure"?
