A Psalm of thanksgiving.
This title indicates the purpose of the psalm, which is to express gratitude and praise to God. Thanksgiving psalms are a distinct category within the Psalter, often reflecting a communal or individual response to God's faithfulness and provision. The act of thanksgiving is deeply rooted in Israelite worship practices, as seen in Leviticus 7:12-15, where offerings of thanksgiving were part of the sacrificial system. This psalm serves as a model for worship, emphasizing the importance of gratitude in the believer's relationship with God.

Make a joyful noise to the LORD,
The phrase "make a joyful noise" suggests an exuberant and vocal expression of praise. This is not a quiet or reserved act but one of loud and enthusiastic celebration. The Hebrew word for "joyful noise" can also be translated as "shout," indicating a public declaration of God's greatness. This form of worship is seen throughout the Old Testament, such as in 2 Samuel 6:15, where David and all Israel shouted with joy as the Ark of the Covenant was brought to Jerusalem. The emphasis on joy reflects the believer's response to God's goodness and sovereignty.

all the earth.
This phrase extends the call to worship beyond Israel to include all nations and peoples. It reflects the universal scope of God's reign and the prophetic vision of all creation acknowledging Him, as seen in passages like Isaiah 45:22-23, where every knee is said to bow to God. The inclusion of "all the earth" anticipates the New Testament revelation of the gospel being for all people, as seen in Matthew 28:19, where Jesus commands His disciples to make disciples of all nations. This universal call to worship underscores the belief that God's glory is to be recognized and celebrated by all of creation.
