- was used for Jubilee year
- first day of seventh month (Tishrei) was "a memorial of blowing"
- were signifying the start of a war or a battle
- used during processions
- musical accompaniment
- part of temple orchestra by King David

- announces the Jewish Year
- sighting of the new moon
- introducing Shabbat
- sounds on Rosh Hashanah

Now usage has no regulations but it is still mostly used by Jews
When shofar will be used in the future
Jesus mentioned shofar related to several prophetic events in the future and so we shall hear it quite soon again.
Jesus said: “and He will send forth His angels with a great shofar and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.” (Matthew 24:31)
Apostle Paul prophesied – “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last shofar; for the shofar will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed.” (Corinthians 15:52)
Apostle Paul also prophesied – “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the shofar Of God.” (I Thessalonians 4:16)
