Strong's Lexicon salpizó: To sound a trumpet, to trumpet Original Word: σαλπίζω Word Origin: From σάλπιγξ (salpinx), meaning "trumpet" Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H7782 (שׁוֹפָר, shofar): Refers to a ram's horn trumpet used in ancient Israel. - H2689 (חֲצֹצְרָה, chatsotsrah): Refers to a silver trumpet used for religious and ceremonial purposes. Usage: The verb "salpizó" refers to the act of blowing a trumpet. In the New Testament, it is often used metaphorically to signify the announcement of significant events, divine interventions, or the call to gather or prepare for action. The trumpet sound is associated with both warning and celebration, as well as the heralding of God's presence or judgment. 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.
