God ordered the prophet Moses to make two silver trumpets. The purpose of those trumpets is to call on the congregation whenever the need arises, such as in time of departure, war and ceremonies. The calling of those trumpets is likened to the language used by the priests to notify the people what should be done. Every tune has a significant meaning. As for the fact that it is made out of silver, this is because it represents the word of God (Prov. 12:6) in both testaments. By the power of the word we worship, move diligently, strive and rejoice (feasts) triumphantly. In the New Testament, the Church substituted the trumpets for bells (Review our book: The Church, House of God, 1969, p. 415-418).
