"I will offer You a sacrifice of thanksgiving." For anyone who is obligated in a sin offering brings a sin offering, and one who is obligated in a guilt offering brings a guilt offering. Here, we do not say sin offering or guilt offering, but rather a sacrifice of thanksgiving. I must give You thanks. "So I will offer You a sacrifice of thanksgiving."

Praise the Lord, all nations! As it says in the verse (Psalms 86:8), "There is none like You among the gods, O Lord, nor are there any works like Yours." How can flesh and blood create form without being in that form? But the Holy One, blessed be He, created man in His form, as it says (Genesis 1:27), "And God created man in His own image." And He also begets like His form, as it says (Genesis 5:3), "And he begot a son in his own likeness, after his image." The waters are the work of His hands and they swarm, as it says (Exodus 1:7), "And the waters swarmed." When a king who is flesh and blood is criticized, his enemies criticize him, but when the Holy One, blessed be He, is criticized, all praise Him, as it says (Psalms 86:9), "All nations whom You have made shall come and praise You, O Lord." Rabbi Pinchas said that a certain philosopher asked Rabbi Yehoshua ben Chananiah, "On what day is the whole world equal, and the nations bow to the Holy One, blessed be He?" He replied, "One day when all are happy, namely, when the rains come. Everyone is sad when the rains are withheld, and when they come down, everyone is happy and praises the Holy One, blessed be He," as it says (Psalms 86:9), "All nations whom You have made shall come and praise You, O Lord. And when is this? (Psalms 86:10) For You are great and do wondrous things, and there are none like You. And wondrous things refer only to rain, as it says (Job 9:10), "Who does great things, unfathomable wonders." He who gives rain to the earth. Therefore, praise the Lord, all nations. Rabbi Tanchum bar Chiya said, "The descent of rain is as great as the giving of the Torah. The giving of the Torah brought joy to Israel, and the descent of rain brings joy to all the nations and to all the world, to beasts, to birds, and to wild animals, as it says (Psalms 65:10), 'You visit the earth and water it; You greatly enrich it.' Rabbi says, 'You satisfy its desire,' as it says (Genesis 3:16), 'And to your husband will be your desire.'"...
