Musar zu Tehillim 65:14
לָבְשׁ֬וּ כָרִ֨ים ׀ הַצֹּ֗אן וַעֲמָקִ֥ים יַֽעַטְפוּ־בָ֑ר יִ֝תְרוֹעֲע֗וּ אַף־יָשִֽׁירוּ׃
Es kleiden sich die Fluren mit Schafen, und die Täler hüllen sich in Getreide. Man jauchzt und singt.
Kav HaYashar
The word shofar hints at the admonition, “Improve [shapru] your deeds and abandon your evil ways!” The tekiyah [a long unbroken blast] is a form of prayer and the one who hears it should say, “Master of the Worlds! Insert [teka] Your name Y-ah [the last two letters of the word tekiyah] among Israel like a peg that is firmly imbedded [takua], as it is written, ‘His hand was upon the throne of Y-ah’ (Shemos 17:16). The shevarim [a blast broken into long segments] is a hint that the Holy One Blessed is He will shatter [yeshabeir], cast down and eradicate the throne of the Sitrah Acharah so that it no longer has any dominion over Israel.This is followed by a teruah [a blast broken into many short segments], indicating that at that time, “they will make a joyful sound [yisro’a’u] and sing together” (Tehillim 65:14). For the letters vav and heh of the word teruah (תרועה) represent the vav and heh [of Hashem’s name], which will join together [with the first two letters, i.e. the yud and heh alluded to above], in fear and love in the name of all Israel.
