All nations praise Gd

Hi,

“All Israel is obligated to acknowledge and praise before the heavens when a miracle occurs for them.

"It is written: ‘Praise Gd, all nations; exalt Gd, all nations; for His generosity has been mighty for us.’ Should the nations all praise Gd because His generosity has been mighty for us?! Rather, this means: ‘Praise Gd, all nations, for what Gd has done for you. All the more so, we should praise Gd, for His generosity has been mighty for us.’"

(Rav Achai Gaon, Sheiltot, Vayyishlach 26)

חג אורים שמח,
Mordechai
