Feast of trumpets?

Question

Serious answers please. How do you celebrate the feast of trumpets?

Answer 1

This is both a Christian and a Jewish holy day - so that would depend on how you will celebrate it. If Jewish, the Feast of Trumpets is celebrated during Rosh Hashanah and is accompanied by the blowing of two silver trumpets.

=================================
If you are Christian, it is a feast to celebrate the return of Christ.

The Feast of Trumpets in the Torah (Hebrew Bible) is derived from the Hebrew: zichron teruah (זִכְרוֹן תְּרוּעָה "a memorial proclaimed with the blast of horns") see the Book of Leviticus 23:24 [1] that refers to the command to perform the ritual of the blowing of the shofar on the Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashanah.

In the days of the Jewish Temple, the shofar was accompanied by the blowing of two silver trumpets (which were also blown on other occasions): Book of Numbers 10:1-2; 10:10: "And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying 'Make thee two trumpets of silver (שְׁתֵּי חֲצוֹצְרֹת כֶּסֶף); of beaten work shalt thou make them; and they shall be unto thee for the calling of the congregation...Also in the day of your gladness, and in your appointed seasons, and in your new moons, ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt-offerings, and over the sacrifices of your peace-offerings; and they shall be to you for a memorial before your God: I am the Lord your God.' [2]

================================


The Feast of Trumpets occurs on the first day of the Hebrew month, Tishri. It would occur at the new moon. Only the slightest crescent would be visible. However, clouds could obscure the moon, and witnesses were required. Watchfulness was a critical ingredient of this feast. The rabbis later added a second day to this feast to make sure they didn't miss it. This need for watchfulness and preparedness in connection with the Feast of Trumpets is echoed and reechoed throughout the New Testament in connection with the Lord's coming:
"Watch, therefore; for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come." (Matthew 24:42).

"Therefore, let us not sleep, as do others, but let us watch and be sober-minded." I Thessalonians 5:6

"Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior, Jesus Christ" (II Timothy 2:13).

"So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation"" (Hebrews 9:28).

"Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, in which the heavens, being on fire, shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless, we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, in which dwelleth righeousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless" (II Peter 3:11-14).
