The Trumpets

The trumpets, also known as “חצוצרות”had a special role to play in the desert and in the Temple. In the desert, it was a call for the camp to prepare for travel.
In the Temple, the trumpets were blown on the holidays to add to the joy of the day. These were also the instruments used by the Levites, to accompany the offerings of the daily sacrifices.
The Torah hints to a future use of these חצוצרות. It could be referring to battles being fought in “the end of days.”
The Malbim says it refers to a battle when the Jewish people will not be actively involved. It will be a war with an enemy that oppresses us, and wishes to drive us out of the land. All we will need to do is blow the trumpets. We will witness the salvation of Hashem, as He destroys our enemies.
The Temple Institute has recreated these trumpets. Sometimes they are seen at the Kotel at a mass prayer service.
It is clear that during the past two years, we have witnessed Hashem’s salvation as our enemies are being subdued one by one.
