The Torah does not explicitly command us to blow the shofar on Rosh Ha-Shana. Rather, the Torah says, “It shall be for you a day of shofar blowing” (Bamidbar 29:1) .
Why do we blow shofar before, during and after the Amida? Which of these is the main fulfillment of the mitzva? And what is the connection between shofar and prayer?
RH-YK. When we think about shofar blowing, we intutitively imagine a primal cry that breaches the boundaries of language and makes it unnecessary to spell out the message in clear-cut and precise terms.
