The blowing of the Shofar begins on the First of Elul, one month before the holiday of Rosh Hashanah, and the final blow is sounded on Yom Kippur after Neilah. What are the reasons behind this mitzvah and why don’t we sound the Shofar on a Shabbat?

This tradition is related to the 40 days of Moses' ascent and return with the second set of decalogue tablets.
