Obeying the commandment of Shofar blowing


Creativity and Tradition

The Bible tells us a little about how exactly Israel should blow shofar. I study the Jewish tradition and commentaries of our sages. My goal is to keep everything valuable that is consistent clearly with the text of the Bible and reveals its symbolic meaning.

I believe that we need to respect our father’s traditions and their experience in obeying God’s commandments. It is important to review the entire previous experience in a creative way, seeking for the will of God in the same time, and to renew the traditional way of shofar blowing.

Here are a few episodes of the congregational meeting and of Holy feasts celebrations, where I blow shofar, thus obeying the Lord’s commandment to Israel.

One of the names of the shofar in the Bible is Yovel (Jubilee). This video shows a fragment of Rosh Ha Shanah Shofar blowing (Feast of Trumpets). This is the musical interpretation of the name Yovel (Jubilee).
