Is the Todah Offering Obligatory? Understanding Tehilim ch. 107

In this session, we continue our exploration of the obligation to give thanks, from the Talmudic sources and commentaries. Assuming that there is such an obligation, does it extend to the Kurban Todah, the thanksgiving offering? And what is the scope of the obligation according to Rav Yehudah quoting Rav? Is it limited precisely to the stated cases, or are they actually paradigms for other unstated cases?

I have posted here sources to be used in our exploration.
