Shofar
Shofar
The Shofar is traditionally made from a horn of a Ram, and is used on important Jewish public and religious occasions. In biblical times the shofar sounded the Sabbath, announced the New Moon, and proclaimed the anointing of a new king. This latter custom has been preserved in modern Israel at the swearing-in of the president of the state. The most important modern use of the shofar in religious ceremonies takes place on Rosh Hashana when it is sounded in the synagogue to call the Jewish people to a spiritual reawakening as the religious New Year begins on Tishri 1.
The sounds produced are Tekiah which is 1 blast, the Shevarim which is 3 wavering continuous blasts, the Teruah which is 9 staccato blasts, and the Tekiah Gedolah which is a long sustained blast. Sounding similar to sobbing or wailing, the sequences are varied strictly according to ritual. The shofar is also sounded on Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, as a call for repentance and sacrifice and for love of the Torah.
