What Does Teruah Mean? Shofar, Jericho & the Feast of Trumpets | Part 2 | Daily Bread

What does a teruah actually sound like—and why does Scripture connect trumpets, shouting, gathering, warfare, and holy convocation?In Part 2 of this Daily Bread Yom Teruah study, The Mandated Reporter continues the Hebrew word study by examining qol, the voice or sound; Tekoa, discussed through the imagery of a defensive stockade; and the language of singing and cries of triumph.The study then explores the different “new year” markers traditionally recognized within the Hebrew calendar, including Nisan, Elul, Tishrei, and Shevat, before returning to Scripture in Ezekiel 40 and Numbers 29.Numbers 29:1 gives the foundation:the first day of the seventh month,a holy convocation,no ordinary work,and a day of trumpet blowing.We then examine yom and teruah more closely as words associated with a division of time, an alarm, signal, shout, battle cry, and war cry.Finally, the study enters Joshua 6 and the fall of Jericho.Priests blow ram’s horns.The people remain silent until the appointed moment.Then trumpet and human voice unite in a great shout.The walls fall.This episode brings together the major themes of Yom Teruah:voice, trumpet, timing, assembly, obedience, warfare, praise, and the sounding of an alarm.From The King’s News Desk, this is Daily Bread with The Mandated Reporter.Helping you understand the Bible in plain language.Reporting the King’s News, one Scripture at a time.HELPFUL LINKSWant more information?• Website: https://themandatedreporter.org• The Mandated Reporter Remote Learning Program: https://the-mandated-reporter-s-schoo...• Subscribe: @themandatedreporter• Instagram: /angelanicolewilliams• Email: howcanwehelp@tmrjmunchkinmerch• One Path to the Way: www.onepathtotheway.wordpress.com• The Work From Home Advisor: www.theworkfromhomeadvisor.wordpress.com• Merch: www.munchkinmerch.com• “I’m Not a Scholar; I’m a Disciple” Merch: https://www.spreadshirt.com/shop/desi...BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS• Spiritual Contamination: Have You Been Exposed? by The Mandated Reporter: https://amzn.to/4hqrYRL• ESV Journaling Study Bible: https://amzn.to/4wIc9wx• NLT Spiritual Growth Bible: https://amzn.to/45v0eXj• Monthly Prayer Journal: Insights and Revelations by The Mandated Reporter: https://amzn.to/4bzpfnDFIND THE DAILY BREAD PODCAST• Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/033vvkx...• Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/081...• MunchkinMerch Podcast: https://www.tmrjmunchkinmerch.com/pod...• Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...DESIGN RESOURCE• Try Canva Pro free for 7 days: https://www.canva.com/join/pdb-mzq-ysrSome links may be affiliate links.
