WRITINGS
The first time read about the Shofar, the ram’s horn, in the Bible is in Exodus Chapter 19, when the Israelites encamped below Mount Sinai. The Hebrew word used in these chapters is Shofar (שֹׁפָ֖ר).[i] The Lord instructed the Israelites to wait for the third day when He would come down upon the mountain, and the blast of a Shofar would sound before them.
It is impossible to understand God’s festivals (His feasts) and the Lord’s high holy days without knowing God’s Hebrew calendar and prophecies. We must have the heart to understand God’s Kingdom’s purposes for the nation of Israel. Many Christians have asked me: “Why should I celebrate the feasts in the Old Testament? Are we not under a New Covenant?” Yes, we are. However, our understanding of these feasts is essential to the church.
