A shofar was used in ancient Israel to call the people to repentance, to war, or to special gatherings. Similar to a shofar blast, the Holy Spirit today calls His congregation to return to the foundations of life in God that He originally gave us. What are these foundations? What does God expect from us? To what roots are we returning?

The book allows us to discover what God intended from the beginning with humanity and the law, and why a new covenant was necessary. Only by understanding the meaning and function of the Old Covenant can we properly understand the New Covenant.

The book addresses the following topics: God's eternal purpose and Israel's role in it - How did the old, Mosaic covenant come about? - The function of the Torah (the laws God gave to Israel) in the Old Covenant and today - The reason for the New Covenant and the difference from the Old Covenant - The Kingdom of God and the Bride of Christ - How can we live today in the New Covenant without denying or elevating our Hebrew roots? - The relationship of the congregation to Israel.
