Numbers 10:3 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 10:3

And when they shall blow with them
With both the trumpets, in an even and continued sound, that is, the sons of Aaron:

all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the
tabernacle of the congregation;
to hear what was to be said unto them: blowing both the trumpets together was a token that the whole congregation was called to meet together at the tabernacle, the door of which was the usual place of assembling, especially on religious counts, for there also the Lord met them, ( Exodus 29:42 Exodus 29:43 ) .

Numbers 10:3 In-Context

1 The LORD spoke to Moses. He said,
2 "Make two trumpets out of hammered silver. Blow them when you want the community to gather together. And blow them when you want the camps to start out.
3 When both trumpets are blown, the whole community must gather in front of you. They must come to the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.
4 Suppose only one trumpet is blown. Then the leaders must gather in front of you. They are the heads of the tribes of Israel.
5 When a trumpet blast is blown, the tribes that are camped on the east side must start out.
