September 06, 2026Rosh Hashana: Shofar - The Cry of the Soul רצוננו לעשות רצונךShiur from Rabbi Elimelech Kohn Ztl on ראש השנה.Discussed: Why does the Torah call Rosh Hashana a Yom Teruah (referring to Shofar), which is only one of the Mitzvos of the day, but nowhere is it mentioned that it's the beginning of the new year and a day of judgment - the defining feature of the holiday? What are the connections between the 4 places the Torah mentions the Shofar that are all incorporated in the Bracha of Shofros in Musaf: The Akida, Matan Torah, the Mitzvah on Rosh Hashana, and the future Geulah? The Vilna Goan explains that "קול" signifies a sound with no meaning, so too the Shofar is the language of the heart and is intended to be primitive without eloquence. Similarly, the Baal Shem Tov writes that the Kol of the Shofar resembles the inarticulate cry of a child to his parent.
