Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient cultures, including Israel, the trumpet was a crucial instrument used for communication. It signaled various events such as the start of festivals, the call to war, or the announcement of important messages. In the Jewish tradition, the trumpet (shofar) was used in religious ceremonies and was a symbol of God's voice. The New Testament continues this tradition, using the trumpet as a metaphor for divine communication and eschatological events.
