Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

Describing Some of Allah's Tremendous FavorsAllah mentions some of the favors He has done for His creatures, such as creating the heavens as a protective ceiling and the earth as a bed. He also sends down rain from the sky and, in its aftermath brings forth a variety of vegetation, fruits and plants of different colors, shapes, tastes, scents and uses.
