Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G4536 (σάλπιγξ, salpinx): This Greek term is used in the New Testament to refer to a trumpet. Like its Hebrew counterpart, the Greek word denotes an instrument used for signaling and is often associated with eschatological events, such as the sounding of the trumpet at the return of Christ. The use of σάλπιγξ in the New Testament echoes the Old Testament's emphasis on the trumpet as a herald of divine action and revelation. Usage: The term תָּקוֹעַ is used in the context of instruments, particularly trumpets, which were employed in various ceremonial and military settings in ancient Israel. Context: The Hebrew word תָּקוֹעַ (Taqoa) refers to a trumpet, an instrument integral to the cultural and religious practices of ancient Israel. Trumpets were used for a variety of purposes, including calling assemblies, signaling during warfare, and marking religious festivals. The sound of the trumpet was a powerful symbol, often associated with the presence of God and divine intervention. In the Hebrew Bible, the trumpet is mentioned in contexts that highlight its role in communication and its ability to convey urgency and authority. The trumpet's sound was a call to action, whether for gathering the people, announcing significant events, or signaling the start of a battle. The use of trumpets is deeply embedded in the liturgical and societal functions of the Israelites, reflecting their importance in both sacred and secular life.
