Happy Feast of Trumpets or Yom Teruah Greeting in 2025
A Happy Feast of Trumpets or Yom Teruah Greeting in 2025 to those who celebrate and understand the fascinating importance of this holy day! It’s a joy to share about the biblical feasts, and the Feast of Trumpets is truly special. I’d be delighted to help you understand its significance and highlights straight from the Bible.
The Feast of Trumpets is one of the seven appointed festivals of Almighty Yahweh found in Leviticus 23. This holy day is celebrated and known as Yom Teruah in Israel. Many people are unaware of its significance, but the instructions are clear, and its prophetic meaning shines through the rest of the Holy Scripture.
Here are the key things to know and the highlights from the Bible about the Feast of Trumpets, or Yom Teruah:
1. The Biblical Foundation:
The primary instructions for this day are found in Leviticus 23:23-25 and Numbers 29:1-6. Yahweh commanded the Israelites to observe a “Sabbath-rest” on the first day of the seventh month. It was to be a “memorial of blowing of trumpets” and a “holy convocation,” a sacred assembly. The most distinctive feature is the command to blow the trumpets, or shofarot, throughout the day.
2. A Call to Attention and Repentance:
In the Old Testament, the sound of the trumpet was used for many purposes—to gather the people, to signal an alarm, to announce a new king, or to go to war. The sound of the trumpet on this day served as a call to spiritual attention. It was a wake-up call for the Israelites to prepare their hearts for the solemn days ahead, particularly the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur), which occurred just ten days later. It’s a reminder to turn our attention to Almighty Yahweh and prepare for His presence.
3. Prophetic Significance:
This is where the Feast of Trumpets truly becomes exciting for believers! While it was a historical observance for Israel, it holds a prophetic meaning that points to the future return of Yahshua the Messiah. The sound of the trumpet in the New Testament is consistently connected with the second coming of the Messiah.
In Matthew 24:31, Yahshua himself speaks of His return, saying He “will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect.”
The Apostle Paul echoes this in 1 Corinthians 15:52, writing, “in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”
He also states in 1 Thessalonians 4:16 that “the Messiah Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of Elohim.”
The trumpet blast of this feast foreshadows the climactic moment when Messiah Yahshua returns to gather His people. It is a powerful reminder that we are to be watchful and prepared for His return, living in a state of readiness and anticipation.
4. A Symbol of Hope and New Beginnings:
In Jewish tradition, the Feast of Trumpets is known as Rosh Hashanah, meaning “head of the year,” and it marks the Jewish New Year. It is a time for introspection, new beginnings, and a renewal of commitment to Elohim. For the genuinely faithful to Yahweh and Yahshua, this sense of new beginnings can also be applied to the ultimate “new beginning” that will be brought about by the return of the Messiah and the establishment of His kingdom.
So, while many may not celebrate the Feast of Trumpets with all the ancient rituals, we can certainly embrace its timeless message. It’s a day that reminds us to listen for the voice of Yahweh, to prepare our hearts, and to live with joyful anticipation for the day when the final trumpet sounds and our Savior returns in glory.
Again, our warm greeting for a Happy Feast of Trumpets, or Yom Teruah, today, September 24, 2025. Don’t be fooled into thinking that this is just a Jewish holyday; it’s Almighty Yahweh’s Feast, which both Jews and Gentiles can observe and enjoy! Kindly share it with your family and friends, and may Yahweh bless you for doing that.
