The first day of the seventh month is characterized as a day (or Remembrance) of "loud blasts" - Yom Teruah or Zikhron Teruah (Leviticus 23; Numbers 29). We often associate the shofar on Rosh HaShana with the ram offered instead of Yitzhak in the story of Akeidat Yitzhak, or with the sound of the shofar during the Revelation at Sinai.
What connotation is the shofar meant to have?
