Yet that is what yovel means, the time of trumpets.Although it is true according to Lev 25 that the trumpets were to be blown on yom kippur. In no way do I nor scores of other Jewish scholars agree that Ez 40 indicates that yom teruah was moved to yom kippur on yovel's.
This assumes the shifting or cancellation of yom teruah on yovel years no? When the text is silent on a matter do we infer what we desire, or rest on what was already instituted? There is no mention of yom teruah 'not' occuring when it usually does. There is only a mention to do something additional on yom kippur during a yovel year.
When I read Ez 40:1 I see it stating it was the beginning of the year on the tenth day of the month. Not that rosh hashanah had been moved to yom kippur on that year.
This is only eluded to in one 'newly' published translation (OJB), and has never been translated this way in the past, nor by any other translation.
