methods of noisemaking from shouting in prayer to blowing on the Silver Trumpets. All of these the Tanakh (Old Covenant) describes as acts of worshipping the Lord. Psalm 150 sums up how to praise the Lord! Ps 150:1-6: Halleluyah! Praise God in his holy place! Praise him in the heavenly dome of his power! Praise him for his mighty deeds! Praise him for his surpassing greatness! Praise him with a
blast on the shofar! Praise him with lute and lyre! Praise him with tambourines and dancing! Praise him with flutes and strings! Praise him with clanging cymbals! Praise him with loud crashing cymbals! Let everything that has breath praise ADONAI! Halleluyah! Any way you look at it, God is to be praised with “Teruah” (Shout).
