In Jewish and Israeli practice, “blowing the trumpets” usually refers to the blowing of the shofar (ram’s horn) on the Feast of Trumpets, also known as Rosh Hashanah or Yom Teruah.

Quick Scoop: What does your question likely mean?

When people online ask “when are they blowing the trumpets in Israel,” they are usually talking about one of two things:

  • The Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah / Yom Teruah) in the Jewish calendar.
  • End‑times style prophecy or rapture talk tied to that feast, especially in Christian or mixed religion forums.

So the answer depends on whether you mean the actual Jewish holiday in Israel, or prophecy-style talk on forums and YouTube.

When do they blow the trumpets in Israel (Jewish calendar)?

In Judaism, the blowing of trumpets (shofar) is commanded in the Bible as a holy day for Israel:

  • “In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a sabbath-rest, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation.” (Leviticus 23:24)
  • This is the Hebrew month of Tishri , the first day of that month.

Key basics

  • The Feast of Trumpets = Rosh Hashanah / Yom Teruah.
  • It is celebrated on 1 Tishri in the Hebrew calendar.
  • The Hebrew calendar is lunisolar , so on the Western (Gregorian) calendar, it usually lands sometime from roughly early September to early October , depending on the year.

On that holiday in Israel and worldwide:

  • The shofar is blown in synagogue services , traditionally 100 blasts over the Rosh Hashanah prayers.
  • It is also blown during the month of Elul (the month before Tishri) in many Jewish communities as a spiritual wake‑up call leading into the High Holy Days.

Because the holiday is tied to the new moon , ancient practice involved watchmen watching for the very first sliver of the Tishri new moon and then blowing the trumpets when it was sighted. That’s why you sometimes hear it called “the day and hour unknown” or “hidden day” in some teachings.

What about end‑times / rapture talk?

A lot of online chatter, especially in Christian or Messianic circles, connects the “trumpets in Israel” to end‑times predictions :

  • Some forum posts and videos talk about Rosh Hashanah as the time of the rapture or Messiah’s coming and joke or speculate as if something dramatic will happen the moment the shofar blows.
  • A YouTube video, for example, talks about “The Nation of Israel blowing 100 Trumpets on September 24th Feast of Trumpets to summon the Messiah,” tying shofar blasts to prophetic expectations.
  • Other Christian ministry content uses the Feast of Trumpets as a symbol or foreshadowing for the return of Jesus, not a fixed date prediction.

Important nuance:

  • Traditional Judaism sees Rosh Hashanah as New Year / Day of Judgment / beginning of the High Holy Days , not a fixed schedule for end‑times events.
  • Many Christian teachers warn against date-setting but still use the feast symbolically, as a call to spiritual “watchfulness” and readiness.

So if your question comes from TikTok/YouTube/forum buzz, a lot of that is interpretation and speculation , not an official “Israel is blowing trumpets to trigger prophecy” event.

How often and where is the shofar blown?

To make it very concrete:

  • In Israel today , shofars are blown:
    • In synagogues on Rosh Hashanah (and at the end of Yom Kippur),
* In some communities every weekday of **Elul** leading up to Rosh Hashanah,

* At special events like religious gatherings, celebrations, or symbolic “prayer for the nation” events.
  • Worldwide Jewish practice mirrors this: many Jews outside Israel also blow the shofar following the same calendar and prayers.

You will also see Christian groups in or focused on Israel blowing shofars at conferences, worship events, and tours as a symbolic act of calling people to repentance or prayer.

Simple way to think of it

If you just want the straightforward, practical answer:

  • “They are blowing the trumpets in Israel” =
    Every Rosh Hashanah (Yom Teruah), on the 1st of Tishri, which falls around September/early autumn each year, with shofar blasts in synagogues and religious settings.

Any extra “this is the moment prophecy will be fulfilled” talk is religious interpretation or internet speculation , not a fixed national schedule.
