EDITORS COMMENTS
Sounding the Horn at the Jewish New Year, 1737: A Tradition Rooted in History and Faith This evocative image captures the moment of "Sounding the Shofar," a cherished Jewish tradition that marks the beginning of the Jewish New Year, or Rosh Hashanah. The shofar, a hollowed-out ram's horn, is blown during synagogue services and at home to signify the call to repentance and to remind believers of God's presence and power. The historical significance of this custom can be traced back to the biblical Book of Leviticus, where the shofar's blast is mentioned as a call to assembly and a reminder of the Jubilee year, a time of release and restoration. The practice continued throughout Jewish history, with various interpretations and additions. In this 1737 print from Mary Evans Prints Online, we see a group of pious Jews gathered around a man blowing the shofar. The solemn expression on their faces and the intense concentration of the shofar blower underscore the importance of this ritual. The image also serves as a reminder of the continuity of Jewish tradition, as this practice has been passed down through generations and continues to be observed today. The rich symbolism of the shofar, with its association with the ram sacrificed in place of Abraham's son Isaac, adds a layer of depth to the Jewish New Year celebration. The shofar's blast is believed to represent the voice of God, calling Jews to return to Him and to seek forgiveness for their sins. This print not only offers a glimpse into the past but also serves as a reminder of the enduring power of faith and tradition in Jewish life. The sound of the shofar continues to echo through the ages, calling Jews to renew their commitment to their faith and to strive for a better year ahead.
