The Divine Ascent

Alah Elohim bi’t’ruah, Yah B’kol shofar
Graphic: The Divine Ascent in Hebrew
God ascends with a blast;
God (appears) with the sound of the shofar. (Psalm 47:6)
[Click (or tap) to see the entire Psalm 47 in Hebrew and English (JPS 1985).]

The Shofar is an instrument of awakening. With the blast of the shofar, the Divine spark in us is set free, and rises into flame. Through our awakening, God is made manifest. Self-Realization becomes God-Realization.
