Strong's Lexicon chatsotsrah: Trumpet Original Word: חֲצֹצְרָה Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to blow or sound a trumpet Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for "chatsotsrah" is σάλπιγξ (salpinx), Strong's Greek #4536, which also refers to a trumpet or horn. Usage: The term "chatsotsrah" refers to a type of trumpet used in ancient Israel. It is distinct from the shofar, which is made from a ram's horn. The chatsotsrah was typically made of metal, often silver, and was used for various ceremonial and practical purposes, including religious rituals, signaling during battle, and calling assemblies. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, the chatsotsrah held significant religious and cultural importance. It was used in the tabernacle and temple services, particularly during offerings and festivals. The sound of the trumpet was a call to worship, a signal for movement, and a means of communication. The use of trumpets is deeply embedded in the religious life of Israel, symbolizing God's presence and the call to His people.
