Seven trumpets : ウィキペディア英語版 | Seven trumpets
Seven trumpets are sounded, one at a time, to cue apocalyptic events that were seen in the vision of the ''Revelation of Christ Jesus'', by John of Patmos, as written in the Book of Revelation of the New Testament. The seven trumpets are sounded by seven angels and the events that follow are described in detail from Revelation Chapters 8 to 11. According to Revelation 8:1-2, the angels sound these trumpets after the breaking of the seventh seal. These seals secured the apocalyptic document, that was in the right hand of ''Him'' who sits on the main throne. ==Significance== Before the invention of the brass trumpet, God had Moses make two silver Trumpets (Numbers 10:2), but the traditional sacred horn of the ancient Hebrews was the shofar made from a ram's horn. It has been used since Moses' day (Exodus ''19:13'')〔''The Jewish Study Bible'', Jewish Publication Society, 2004〕 to get the attention of the Israelites, signal, or to prelude an announcement and/or warning from God. Joshua had 7 priests carry 7 horns for 7 days and circle Jericho 7 times, then the priest sounded the horns, the people shouted and the walls came down. (''Joshua 6:4'').〔 In St. Paul's letter of I Thessalonians ''4:16, "the trumpet of God"'' heralds the Second Coming of Christ.
