Medium sized kosher biblical Yemenite shofar from Jerusalem – fully polished.
In the Hebrew Bible, the shofar was often used to signal that a war had ended. Several times Joab stood on a mountain and blew the shofar for this very reason. As believers, we eagerly await the day when the sound of the final shofar will signal God’s victory and the end of all war.

A shofar is used as a trumpet during biblical feasts of the Bible.
And they swore unto the LORD with a loud voice, and with shouting and with trumpets and with shofar. (2 Corinthians 17:14)
The practice of blowing a shofar is equally relevant for Christians and Jews.
The shofar is spoken of frequently in scripture beginning at Exodus 19. where the blast of a shofar emanating from the thick cloud on Mount Sinai makes the Israelites tremble in awe.
The shofar is used to announce the new moon and the Jubilee year. The first day of the seventh month (Tishrei) is termed “a memorial of blowing”. Also they are used to ‘sound the alarm’ (Joel 2) and signifying the start of a war. Later, they were also employed in the temple orchestra by King David.
Comes with an optional olive wood shofar stand.
