  Cornet
     Heb. shophar, "brightness," with reference to the clearness of
     its sound (1 Chr. 15:28; 2 Chr. 15:14; Ps. 98:6; Hos. 5:8). It
     is usually rendered in the Authorized Version "trumpet." It
     denotes the long and straight horn, about eighteen inches long.
     The words of Joel, "Blow the trumpet," literally, "Sound the
     cornet," refer to the festival which was the preparation for the
     day of Atonement. In Dan. 3:5, 7, 10, 15, the word (keren) so
     rendered is a curved horn. The word "cornet" in 2 Sam. 6:5 (Heb.
     mena'an'im, occurring only here) was some kind of instrument
     played by being shaken like the Egyptian sistrum, consisting of
     rings or bells hung loosely on iron rods.
