The Loud Trumpet


Leviticus 25:9-10 ESV
9 Then you shall sound the loud trumpet on the tenth day of the seventh month. On the Day of Atonement you shall sound the trumpet throughout all your land.
10 And you shall consecrate the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you, when each of you shall return to his property and each of you shall return to his clan.

The trumpet, or shofar, will give voice, a shout, to the joy of celebration of the Lord's return. The jubilee at the atonement feast foreshadows that celebration.
