Shiur from Rabbi Elimelech Kohn Ztl on \u05e8\u05d0\u05e9 \u05d4\u05e9\u05e0\u05d4\u200e.\nDiscussed:\n\n \u2022 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? \n \u2022 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?\n \u2022 The Vilna Goan explains that "\u05e7\u05d5\u05dc" signifies a sound with no meaning, so too the Shofar is the language of the heart and is intended to be primitive without eloquence.
