Description
The ram’s horn (shofar) is one of the most enduring of biblical symbols, harking back at least to the time of Abraham, when a ram was caught by its horns in a thorn bush as a substitute for the sacrifice of Isaac. The trembling wail of the shofar is a reminder to God’s people that they stand in the presence of a holy God. This issue of Restore! will examine the wide-ranging material in Holy Scripture that speaks to God’s people of trumpets.
