This page deals with The Day of Trumpets.
The Day of Trumpets is mentioned in Leviticus 23:24.
In the OT, Trumpets are used for three main activities. First, to gather the leaders of The Tribes of Israel. Second to announce the gathering of all the people of Israel for moving or for warfare. Third, to announce special Days of Worship such as the Annual Day of Trumpets, etc.
Nehemiah 8 provides a bridge from the OT to the NT concepts of this day. Here The regathered People of God discover The Word of God and begin to understand what God requires of them. Thus we can see two concepts about The Day of Trumpets which we should look for in The NT. First The Holy Spirit gives The People of God some life changing information. Second, This information is discovered by The Leadership and the people are led to understand what to do. This information has been written in God's Word but has not been acted upon by God's People in that generation.
The Books of Acts, Ephesians, Galatians, Colossians and Thessalonians deal with these activities. As we can see from Acts Chapters 1 and 15, and 1 Corinthians 12, The Day of Trumpets and Pentecost are closely related.
