It is the Last TRUMP of
Rash HaSanah, and it has been called by that name for 3000 years, AND PAUL ATTENDED THE FEAST OF TRUMPETS, or
Rash HaSanah almost every year of his Adult life. What do you think an adult strict JEW would think the LAST TRUMP meant ? ? ? Does the LAST TRUMP mean Something HE WAS VERY FAMILIAR WITH, or Something that would not be written until 31 years or so, after his DEATH.

More specifically, you will learn in this article that “the last trump” that is part of the Rapture description in the Apostle Paul’s first letter to the Church in Corinth is actually a clear reference to the 100th trumpet blast of the Feast of Trumpets. The 100th Trump is “the last trump.”
100 Trumpet Blasts
During the Feast of Trumpets
This is because 100 trumpet blasts are actually blown during the Feast of Trumpets. Moreover, there are different kinds of trumpet blasts and they have different names and descriptions associated with them. The last trump has a name as well, and we will see what it is in just a few moments.
So “the last trump” of the Feast of Trumpets is not the last time that a trumpet will ever be blown. It is specifically referring to the last trumpet blast of the Feast of Trumpets which is celebrated every year.
That is trumpet number 100. Every year. During the Feast of Trumpets.

The Feast of Trumpets
September 25th is also known as
Yom Teruah, the Feast of Trumpets.
3 Observed on the First and Second of Tishri, the celebration actually begins 29 days earlier: a series of over 90 trumpet blasts accrue for a final blowing of blasts on the climax of the celebration, the
Teki'ah Gedolah, the Great Blowing.
In the rabbinical literature, there are many details that are quite provocative. Among the most significant is the use of the
shofar, the ram's horn, instead of the usual silver Temple trumpets. (If you visit the Temple Institute in Jerusalem, you can see the silver trumpets that have been fashioned for use in the coming Temple.)
The
shofar is associated with the
Akedah, Abraham's offering of Isaac on Mount Moriah, as detailed in Genesis 22. Rabbinical tradition associates the left horn of the ram as the "first trump" and the right horn as the "last trump".
A distinguishing feature of the celebration is the last, climactic blast, the
Teki'at Shofar. This is not the usual series of short bursts, signalling alarm or bad news. Rather, it is a long blast, signalling victory or good news. It is this last blast that is referred to as the last trump.
Paul's Mystery
In Paul's Resurrection Chapter, I Corinthians 15, he describes that strange event which has now become known as "The Rapture" of the Church:
Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

The 100th Trumpet of
Rash HaSanah IS the LAST TRUMP, and
Paul would have KNOW THAT. The Book of Revelation was not written until 96 AD. Paul died in 70 AD.
1 Corinthians 15:51-53 (ASV)
51 Behold, I tell you a mystery: We all shall not sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye,
at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
Look at the FAMILIARITY that Paul speaks about the TERM. That most likely would not Be there, IF he were writing about something that would not be WRITTEN about until John wrote Revelation, in 96 AD, 31 years or so, after Paul died.

There are three trumpets that have a name:
the first trump,
the last trump and
the great trump. Each has a specific day in the year: first trump is associated with Pentecost,
last trump is associated with
Rosh HaShanah and the great trump is associated with Yom Kippur.
[In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. (1 Cor 15:52)]
"When the Shofar is blown on Rosh HaShana, three different types of noises are sounded. The first is a 'teki'ah.' This sound is one long continuous burst. The second sound is called a 'shevarim.' It consists of three shorter blasts. The third sound is the 'teruah.' The teruah is a set of nine short bursts of sound, a staccato blast. The Gemora in Rosh HaShana tells us that these later two sounds are meant to sound like crying: '. . . drawing a long sigh. . . uttering short piercing cries.' The Ben Ish Chai writes that these sounds are meant to contrast with the tekiah. The tekiah, he explains, is a sound of triumph and joy, while the shevarim and teruah are sounds of pain and suffering. Because of the opposing feelings they represent, when one blows the shofar, he is not to connect the tekiah with the others, by blowing the sounds with the same breath."
