Shofar Practice Explained

By RABBI SAMUEL FOX

(Copyright 1980, JTA, Inc.)

The shofar is blown in the
synagogue every weekday
morning during the month
preceding Rosh Hashana for
a variety of reasons.
Generally, these days are
considered serious days be-
cause they precede the proc-
ess of judgment which takes
place annually at Rosh
Hashana. The shofar, then,
would be considered (as
Maimonides) as a stimulus
to awaken the people to pre-
pare for the period of judg-
ment. It seems that these
were originally fast days
and a shofar was usually
sounded on fast days.
Later on, when fasting
became difficult for
many, the days were days
of solemnity and the
shofar is blown to remind
the people that these
were originally fast days
and times for serious
thinking which would
lead to repentance. It is
also claimed that these
were the days when
Moses went up on Mount
Sinai a second time (i.e.,
after the Jews sinned by
making the golden calf).
When he first left the
people to climb the
mountain a shofar was
sounded.
Blowing the shofar for
this whole month today re-
minds us of this historic
moment, telling us that in
the case•of Moses the days .
lead to the forgiveness of the
people as we hope the days

in our time before the New
Year will do likewise. The
sources deduce this practice
from an expression in the
holy Book of Psalms where
it is written: "Sound the
shofar at the month at the
designated time for the day
of our festival" (Psalms
81:4).
