ROSH HASHANAH

Leviticus 23:23-25:  Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying.  Speak to the children of Israel, saying: "In the seventh month on the first day of the month, you shall have a sabbath-rest, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.  "You shall do no customary work on it: and you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord."

FEAST OF TRUMPETS

Called Rosh Hashanah by the Jews; a day of rejoicing marked by the blowing of the Shofar, (trumphet in English) which is the Jewish New Year.

Today the Believers (Christians) pictures a time of war and plagues, concluding with Yeshua the Messiah's (Jesus Christ's) Second Coming.

(Revelation 11:15)

Rosh Hashanah has several names in Jewish tradition: the Bible refers to it as Yom Terua – the day of raising a cry, or the day of sounding the ram‘s horn, Yom Zichron Terua the day of remembering the Terua, and Yom Hadin - the Day of Judgment.

Throughout synagogue services on Rosh Hashanah, the sounding of the ram‘s horn takes place at different points unless it falls on Shabbat, in which case the Shofar is not blown at all. The simple sound of the Shofar spiritually touches people on this holy day of soul-searching, repentance and judgment.
