What does the Bible say about the Feast of Blowing of Trumpets?

The Feast of Blowing of Trumpets, as described in Leviticus 23:23-25, is celebrated on the first day of the seventh month. It is designated as a Sabbath and a memorial, but notably, it is the only feast referred to as a memorial. This day marks not just the start of a month but also the beginning of a new year, creating a dual significance that can be somewhat confusing. Some interpretations suggest it serves as a time of giving thanks for the year gone by, while others propose it anticipates the Lord’s return, heralded by the sound of trumpets.
