FEAST of TRUMPETS

In Hebrew this is Yom Teruah. It is set to begin the evening of September 24 though
the morning of September 26th. However, this really can’t begin until the new moon is
seen. I will be referencing Perry Stone’s teaching: Breaking the Apocalypse Code and
Mark Biltz’s teaching: The Feasts of the Lord

Mark Biltz teaching page 16: The Jews believe the 3 fall feasts represent the following
things which are yet to be fulfilled:
Feast of Trumpets: Repentance
Feast of Yom Kippur: Redemption
Feast of Tabernacles: Rejoicing

Idioms for the Feast of Yom Teruah (Feast of Trumpets):

Yom HaDin/Day of Judgment/The Opening of the Books/Opening of the Gates

not on Saturday.

Diaspora – mass dispersions of an involuntary nature – expulsions of Jews from Judae,

this caused the Feast to be 2 days long so that everyone would be able to celebrate it.

Page 4 of 7
Even though it was regarded as One Long Day. This Feast fell on the first, it was known
as the Feast where no one would know the day or the hour it came! It was a day
symbolically hidden even from Satan so he would not be 100% aware of its arrival.

Because it’s the first day of the month, was 2 days long, and was based on the sighting
of the New Moon by two witnesses it’s known as the Feast where no one knows “The
Day or the Hour” it would begin!

On the Feast of Trumpets the Shofar is blown 100 times

There are three sounds made with the shofar:
Tekiah – One long straight blast.
Shevarim – Three shorter blasts.
Teruah – 9 quick blasts in short succession
This series is blown 11 times for a total of 99 blasts and the final blast is known as “The
Last Trump!”

Yom HaKeseh (The Hidden Day)

Zeph. 2:1-4

Ps. 27:5

Ha Kiddushin/Nesuin (Wedding of the Messiah) The Bible is a marriage covenant

Marriages were arranged by the parents (Abraham for Isaac). Typically the young man
would go to the house of the “bride to be” carrying 3 items A. Large sum of Money B.
Betrothal Contract C. Skin of wine Anyone arriving at a house with these 3 items was
definitely considered suspect. If the bridal price was approved a glass of wine was
poured. If she approved, the betrothal contract became a legal document between be
called husband and wife.

After the cup The Bridegroom would make the statement “He would go to His Father’s
house and prepare a place for her.” This place was known as the chamber John 14:1-4.

If anyone would ask the day of the wedding he would say “Only my father knows” for
the father had to be completely satisfied every preparation had been made before he
could get his bride.

Page 5 of 7
Mark 13:32

Bridegroom returned accompanied by a shout “Behold the bridegroom comes” and the
Shofar was blown. This typically was done at night which is why the lamps were to be
kept burning.

Matt.: 25:6-7

Bridegroom would abduct his bride and take her to the bridal chamber where the
marriage was consummated

Finally there was the marriage supper for all invited.

Isa.62:5-7

1st Trump was blown at Mt. Sinai with the giving of God’s commands Ex.19:16
Last Trump is rapture – I Cor. 15:52
3rd Trump is the same as the Great Trump blown at the 2nd coming of Christ Matt.24:31

On Feast Days Rabbis studied solar eclipses (earth quakes, famines, global wars)
They learned from watching what happened when there were blood moons and when
there were solar eclipses. Blood moons were always about the Jewish people. The
eclipses were about the nations. The sun represents the nations because there are
more of them.

Heavens are about God, He stays on His calendar. We will have a blood moon this
October, then next March we will have a solar eclipse and 2 blood moons after that.

This Feast of Trumpets begins a shemitah year – when the land was supposed to rest.
After the shemitah will come a Jubilee year according to many theologists.

Jubilee (Lev.25)

Israel counted 7 years of 7 Sabbath cycles (49 years) and on the 49th blew the silver
trumpets. The Jubilee fell on the Day of Atonement in the 50th year (there was

Page 6 of 7
freedom and judgment the same day) The Day of Atonement was believed to be the
day Adam sinned.

In the year of Jubilee:

The Hebrew slaves returned home
The land was redeemed
The oppressed were released
The land and the people rested
-The saints will arrive home
-The earth will be redeemed back to Christ
-The Jewish remnant will be saved
-The Sabbath of rest for God’s people
Begins
