Trumpet
From BibleWiki
(Redirected from Trumpets)
Trumpets were of a great variety of forms, and were made of divers materials. Some were made of silver (Num 10:2), and were used only by the priests in announcing the approach of festivals and in giving signals of war. Some were also made of rams' horns (Josh 6:8). They were blown at special festivals, and to herald the arrival of special seasons (Lev 23:24; 25:9; 1Chr 15:24; 2Chr 29:27; Ps 813; 98:6).
"Trumpets" are among the symbols used in the Book of Revelation (Rev 1:10; 8:2). (See HORN.)
