R U Salty?

We are no doubt very familiar with

Yeshua/Jesus’ words in the verse 

Matthew 5:13

You are the salt of the earth. 

Also referenced in the other gospels:

 Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness,

how can you make it salty again?

Mark 9:50

Luke 14:34, 35 Salt is good; but if the salt has lost its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? 35 It is neither fit for the land nor for the [a]dunghill, but men throw it out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!

All these references are traced back to

Leviticus 2:13 & Numbers 18:19

All the Holy offerings that the Israelites present to the LORD I give to you and to your sons and daughters as a permanent statute. It is a permanent covenant of salt before the LORD for you and your offspring.

In the Scriptures the Creator of the universe made a

Covenant of Salt

with Aarons sons, the children of Israel

and the Davidic Kingdom.

Our Heavenly Father keeps His Covenants and in this ancient ritual of middle-eastern covenant making, we can see how faithful and loyal He is towards us. When we realize how permanent the salt covenant is, this reference is a scriptural answer/rebuttal, to the replacement theology theory because…

It is a covenant of salt

FOREVER

before the Lord unto thee and thy seed with thee.

Covenant of Salt/Salt Covenant

in Hebrew:

b’rith melah,

ברית מלח

In paleo 

is the most extraordinary of all HIS Covenants.

It is symbolic of endurance, preservation,

and freedom from corruption.

It is a perfect picture of our CREATOR,

and it is generously sprinkled

on HIS Ancient Path

to preserve it and

keep it pure.

This is the WAY of Holiness,

The Kings’ Highway.

Isaiah 35:8 & 2 Tim. 2:19

This act of eating another’s salt has always been regarded as a token of fidelity friendship.

Sometimes bread and salt are eaten together making a covenant.

There is bread and salt between us we are brothers.

Covenant of Salt.

A Biblical phrase for a two-way agreement, the sacredness of which was symbolized by the salt

A Middle Eastern saying, “There is bread and salt between us,” meant that a relationship had been confirmed by sharing a meal. 

Salt symbolized the life and enduring nature of the alliance.  

It means “we are now friends.”

In ancient Middle East salt was a rare commodity, and one also shared salt with their friends as a flavor enhancer. 

This custom came down from remote antiquity and the covenant can never be forgotten or renounced.

 

To understand the fullness of the reference, we must go back to the old testament – Tenakh/Tenach, specifically Torah. Where we read about the gifts to the Priesthood/the Kohanim.

Remember everything is connected.

In Bemidbar/Numbers 16:1-18:32 we’ve read that the Levites and the Kohanim would receive no portion of the land in the promised land of Israel; the people were instructed to support them by means of gifts – mattanot.

For reference they are are listed at the end of this section of scripture.

Numbers 16:1-18:32.

gift – matana

מתנה

Strong’s Hebrew: 4503. מִנְחָה (minchah) — a gift, tribute

A gift (the act of giving) is ‘ma•tan,’ very close to the word of the day, ma•ta•na. The first time ma•ta•na, gift, is mentioned in the Bible, is in reference to the Levites that are given as a gift by God to the Israelites:

The Torah lists 24 of these gifts to the priests including the regular portion of crops terumah; offerings,

bikkurim, first fruits;

parts of various sacrificial offerings, and revenue from the redemption of the first born son’s pidyon haben.

Pidyon HaBen – פדיון הבן

Redemption of the (firstborn) son.

The ceremony wherein

the father of

a firstborn male born to Israelite

(non Kohen or Levite)

parents is redeemed from a Kohen –

(a priestly descendent of Aaron) –

in exchange for 5 silver coins, 30 days after his birth.

Our Heavenly Father calls this agreement

pidyon haben, or 

“redemption of the firstborn son,” 

a covenant of salt.

ברית מלח

Brit melach.

Strong’s Hebrew: 4417. מֶ֫לַח (melach) — salt

KJV: of Siddim, which is the salt sea.

INT: which sea is the Salt.

Genesis 19:26 HEB: וַתְּהִ֖י נְצִ֥יב מֶֽלַח׃   

KJV: and she, (Lots wife), became a pillar of salt.

A covenant of salt.

Specifically, in Leviticus,

God tells Moses that the Israelites are to:

Season all your grain offerings with salt. Do not leave the salt of the covenant of your God out of your grain offerings; add salt to all your offerings. Leviticus 2:13

It’s interesting that God talks about the salt of the covenant. He instructs Moses that all the offerings are to have salt added to them; and then, tells Moses that because they don’t have a land inheritance Aaron and the Levites can have all the offerings except the burnt offerings; explaining that this agreement is

an everlasting covenant of salt:

Whatever is set aside from the holy offerings the Israelites present to the LORD I give to you and your sons and daughters as your perpetual share. It is an everlasting covenant of salt before the LORD for both you and your offspring. Numbers 18:19

All the wave offerings of the holy things, which the children of Israel offer to Yahweh, have I given you, and your sons and your daughters with you, as a portion forever: it is a covenant of salt forever before Yahweh to you and to your seed with you.

The tribe of Levites were promised that they will always have food, that this is an everlasting covenant as long as they do the work necessary in the temple;(conditional). The covenant of salt did not only have to do with meat or grain offerings in the tabernacle (temple). According to scripture the covenant of salt was in effect when there was no offering, at the time when the kingship of Israel was given to David and his progeny forever:

Don’t you know that the LORD, the God of Israel, has given the kingship of Israel to David and his descendants forever by a covenant of salt? 2 Chronicles 13:5.

Here it seems to clearly imply that the covenant of salt is

a lasting agreement,

something that goes on forever.

Salt is a mineral that preserves foods without refrigeration.

 Salt is good, it makes meat savory, and keep this flesh from becoming corrupted; and so it is with our Heavenly Fathers grace which seasons men’s hearts, and makes their conversations savory.

Col. 4:6  Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man. (that is: Our words should be with SALT – wholesome and palatable). 

It preserves them/us from the corruption of sin.

Following salvation, believers become partakers of the grace of God; and, both by their words and actions are good and useful to others, all true ministers of the Gospel, are the salt of the earth.

Our bodies require salt to survive. These bodies cannot make salt so must get it (sodium) from the foods we eat, because without salt, the body would die.

So what is the meaning of the covenant of salt?

Is it our Heavenly Fathers’s way of saying that it is a

covenant that is preserved,

one that lasts forever?

Could it infer that without this covenant, we die to the things of God?

Salt is NaCl. 

An ion of sodium (Na), which is a metal, reacts with chlorine ion (Cl), a poisonous gas, to create Sodium Chloride (NaCl) which becomes a stable rock called salt.

We add it to our foods, and we use it on our roads to melt ice.

Salt is Sodium chloride.

Sodium ions (Na+) are required in small amounts by some plants. Sodium is needed in large amounts by animals to generate nerve impulses and to maintain electrolyte and fluid balance. Sodium chloride is vital for maintaining extracellular fluid in multicellular organisms.

In medicine, saline, the solution of sodium chloride, is used for intravenous infusions.

An interesting point is that a permutation of the Hebrew word

melach, salt; is chalam,

which means healing.

On the other hand, excessive salt consumption can aggravate hypertension in our bodies and soil with a high concentration of salt is infertile. However in a measured quantity salt can kill weeds and we know if you do nothing to a garden you still get/grow weeds. This is symbolic of the garden/ground of our lives we will get spiritual weeds growing if we don’t tend and keep it, planting seeds that will produce a beneficial harvest. This thought brings to remembrance the original directions to Eden’s occupants!

As the Torah says,

Sulfur and salt have burnt the entire land.

Deuteronomy 29:22

 Another scripture tells us that when Abimelech destroyed the city of Shechem, he

“sow[ed] salt on it” Judges 9:45,

to render it barren and prevent its repopulation.

When Elisha the prophet came to Jericho:

And the men of the city said to Elisha, ‘Behold, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord may see; but the water is bad, and the ground causes untimely births.’ And [Elisha] said, ‘Bring me a new flask and put salt in it.’ And they brought it to him. And they went out to the spring of waters, and cast salt in there, and said, ‘Thus says the Lord, I have healed this water; there shall not be from there any more death or miscarriages.’ So the water was healed to this day, according to the saying of Elisha. 2 Kings 2:19-22.

No matter who they are or what they do, the bottom line for each and every person, is that they will serve somebody/something. This is a black and white statement; and it is either the devil and his kingdom or Our Heavenly Father and His Kingdom whom we serve.  People can cover up/camouflage satan with all the religious pomp and finery they desire; 1 Cor. 8:4-6, but in the end, its’ roots are still in satans kingdoms of this world, and are not of the one True God, The Creator of His universe. 1 Cor. 10:18-22.  Our thoughts, words, and/or actions will indicate the one we serve as scripture says you will know them by their fruit. Matt. 7:16

Can this truth be found in the Tenach/Tenakh, this phrase

Covenant of Salt?

Scripture only refers to it 3x, yet it has great significance to the believer in Messiah Yeshua/Jesus today. 

For many, it is an integral part of their commitment one to the other in the marriage covenant.

Leviticus 2:13

is the first time this phrase is found,

where the order of the words is

salt of the covenant.” 

Salt was to be added to the grain offering which is the context of this passage.

However our Fathers’ Spirit did not stop with the grain offerings; in the same verse, He directed Moses to write that the Israelites were to add salt to all your offerings.  Specifying that not just grain offerings, but ALL offerings made to Him by the Israelites, were to have salt added to them. 

In Numbers 18:19, is the second time it is mentioned, and it’s also in the instructions concerning offerings.  Here, the word order has been changed to covenant of salt.  In Numbers 18, Moses is told to instruct Aaron and the Levites that the care of the Tabernacle was their responsibility to fulfill.  Moses was also to inform them that

all the holy offerings the Israelites give Me I give to you and your sons as your portion and regular share. 

This was their share/allotment, as they would not receive any inheritance in the Promised Land because

He was their inheritance. 

All the offerings, belonged to them apart from the burnt offerings; this was because He was letting them know that through the offerings given by the people, He Himself would provide for them. The Priesthood/Kohenim were to serve the Lord and trust Him for their livelihoods. This has a counterpart in the New Testament as we are now a royal Priesthood and to rely on our Father in Heaven to provide for us. 1 Peter 2:9 & Matthew 6:8, 25-34.

 Whatever is set aside from the holy offerings the Israelites present to the LORD I give to you…It is an everlasting covenant of salt before the LORD.  

2 Chronicles 13:5 is the last time the phrase is found when the Lord gave to David and his descendants the kingship of Israel forever through a covenant of salt. 

The previous two scriptures are concerning offerings, but this one is not.  2 Chronicles is seemingly totally unrelated to the 2 previous references, but is it connected somehow?  The scripture references never directly define the phrase in any of these passages, so how do we find out what our Father was trying to tell us through them?  More importantly for us reading it, what does it mean to believers in Yeshua/Jesus today?

And Why Salt?

Salt is a symbol of eternity because of its preservative properties; as opposed to leavening /chametz.

Salt does not ferment and so preserves food against rot and decay.

Because salt does not ferment …. it does not change its base elements!

As we read all these facts we must apply their meaning spiritually.

The Word of God is spiritually discerned and the precepts laid out in scripture are to be applied to our lives as we gain understanding.

This is the meaning of Proverbs 4:7:

Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.

It is the application of His Word to our lives and applying that knowledge to ourselves. If we don’t have understanding, how will we know what to do with the knowledge we gain?

So when Yeshua/Jesus said you are the salt of the earth/world…

It suggests that we are

to stay the same, to be permanent,

we are not to change,

we are not to be blown around by every wind of doctrine

but remain stable, unmoved,

firmly planted on the Rock of our salvation,

Jesus Christ the Messiah/Yeshua HaMashiach.

We are to be consistent, committed and unshakeable in our faith and stand for the Lord, enduring to the end.

Remember salt is an element found in huge quantities all around the world and we are formed from the dust of the ground which includes salt. Ever tasted tears? They are salty and so is the sweat of our brow!

Because of this, Salt is essential to our bodies and they will not function properly without salt; and a lack of it can cause serious health issues. Any element which ferments is caused to expand due to the chemical process and this gives rise to volatile gases with explosive qualities!

We are not to be explosive in our conduct and manner of life. We are to be seasoned with salt and therefore not given to any explosive gases; instead to be calm, even tempered, bringing forth the fruit of His spirit and filled with His shalom.

Galatians 5:22-23

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.

The most interesting element of salt is: it a natural long term preservative and will keep food fresh for a long time. Before refrigeration technology, meat and fish were salted and many who preserve those, as well as fruit and vegetables, use salt techniques today.

He will preserve us until the day of our full redemption.

Apparently, Salt contains all of the 84 elements found in our bodies.

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT 

It is estimated that salt has 14,000 uses;

below are just a few.

The Bible mentions salt more than 30 times. Salt has a religious significance and symbol of purity.

Salt is essential to health. Body cells must have salt in order to live and work. Blood, sweat and tears are salty.

Salt is an antiseptic (germ killing) property that make it useful for bathing of infections including being used as a mouth wash. It is also used for cleaning teeth.

Among people today, salt is still used as a sign of honor, friendship and hospitality. A saying, mentioned earlier, is “there is salt between us” meaning “we have eaten together, we are bonded friends”.

Salt was once so scarce and precious that it was used as money. Caesar’s soldiers received part of their pay in common salt. This was known as salarium from which the word salary comes.

Dating back to the days when workers were paid their wages in salt is the modern expression “not worth his salt”, and it literally means not working good enough to earn his wage.

Salt was a chief economic product of the ancient world. It was important in the development of the earliest highways of trade.

Roman soldiers built one of the great military roads in History, the Via Salaria (Salt Road), from the salt works at Ostia to Rome.

How is this relevant?

Salt enhances the taste of food.

Can the plain be eaten without salt? asks Job 6:6

On the other hand, over salted food becomes inedible. Drinking sea salt water will cause madness and death.

We are to seek the spiritual meaning. 

Salt changes everything it comes in contact with but the salt itself remains unchanged!

So as we walk through life we are to initiate change in others lives and circumstances but remain unchanged ourselves. Directing them to Yeshua/Jesus His Ruach HaKodesh who always point to the Father.

As salt preserves food against decay and rot; if we are the salt of the earth, then we are to preserve the bread of life, which is the food of His Ruach/Spirit. It is that which feeds His sheep daily and it needs to be fresh, not stale or moldy. Just as the manna/manhu fed the children of Israel in the years of their wilderness journey. We are pilgrims, as Moses said, traveling through this land, sojourners not residents! This is not our home; and as we travel through our personal wilderness, passing between Egypt (type of the world) and the Promised Land; (Future Resurrection /Ascension life/chaim;) we are also receiving daily manna from Heaven seasoned with salt for our walk. Jesus/Yeshua said He was the bread of heaven, the bread of life; we eat of Him continually and are satisfied.

We are to be in receipt of His meat in due season and this food is the same that Yeshua/Jesus said He had,

I have meat that you know not of. John 4:32

We are to

and not become saltless and tasteless

and have the fate of being thrown to the side and trampled underfoot.

This is in reference to the fact that when salt had become tasteless it had no further use and was thrown into the streets and literally trodden underfoot by the roman armies marching along these roads.

This was probably also a reference to those living at that time under the oppressive Roman regime.

Some scholars point out that salt was used as a preserving element and it was added to the meat to help it stay fresh longer, until the priests could eat it.  Others point to the prohibition of eating meat containing blood; salt was applied to the offering (after it was killed and the skin removed) to aid in the removal of the blood from the carcass.  Salt was therefore seen as a cleansing or purifying agent as well.

If we read the scriptures there seems to be a question with these two lines of thought.

Salt was to be added to all your offerings, including the grain offering, which had no blood.  The burnt offerings, which were to have salt, were never to be eaten by the priests as the entire animal was consumed by fire. Lev. 1. Therefore in those cases no preservation or cleansing agent would be needed.  Furthermore, it couldn’t just be related to the Kohenim/Kohanim, as the phrase covenant of salt was also used with David, who was from the tribe of Judah.  So it would seem that the meaning of the salt covenant was something other than preservation, prevention from eating blood, or cleansing.

One scholar noted that “salt had an enduring quality and therefore in the Middle East salt was used in ceremonies to seal an agreement.  Hence, the idea may simply be that God’s call upon the Kohenim and their service should endure, i.e., overcome all things.” 

It sounds right but it doesn’t explain why it’s used in connection with the House of David and the Israelites who presented the offerings.

There seems to be much more to this covenant of salt.  Is it possible that the covenant of salt was all about a relationship with the Father based upon trust?  

Faith in Him alone?

The people were to trust Him by giving the salt that was put into their offering.  He would provide for them and they were to give back out of love and obedience. 

The priests and Levites were to trust Him by serving Him without a land inheritance like their brothers. 

He would provide for their livelihood while they were away from their cities which were all throughout Israel. 

David and his sons were to trust God as their King and serve Him, believing He would keep the throne moving through David’s line long after David and his sons were gone; fulfilling prophecy.  

It seems most likely that this is the truth Our Father is trying to express when He uses the phrase covenant of salt.

Is it not Truth that He desires a relationship with His people based upon trust? One that can be witnessed in their actions and, the end goal will be seen through a changed life?

The first Hebrew word in the phrase, covenant, is

bĕriyth

בּרית.  

This word basically means an agreement or alliance between two parties where each party makes a pledge to keep their part of the agreement.

Genesis 6:18. is the first time this word is found.

One scholar states: “In the essence of salt is the power of water and the power of fire, which signify two of the [Divine] attributes on which the world is established: the attribute of Compassion (midat rahamim) and the attribute of Justice (midat hadin), and for this reason . . . it is called the salt of your covenant with God.

The covenant of salt

is one of permanence;

if it were not important or relevant to us,

Jesus/Yeshua would not have talked about it.

Remember His listeners were Jewish and knew Torah and Tenakh. Even if they did not read scrolls for themselves, the Rabbis read portions of scripture in the synagogues each week through the year; cycling through the Torah Prophets and Writings annually. These sections are called parashat and served as a calendar for the people. Appropriate teachings accompanied the readings. This is the reason that Yeshua/Jesus went to His hometown that particular week because it was the week for the reading of the Isaiah scroll. It was not random. He would of course have known that, and so would all those listening. In every synagogue, everywhere, at that time, all of them would have been reading the same portion of Isaiah as Messiah declared

this day it is fulfilled in your hearing! Wow!

It was the Fathers perfect timing as they literally read through Torah and later the Tenakh every year. The second reading, called haftorah, was added when the Israelites were in captivity in Babylon and they were forbidden from reading Torah. They took the time to locate scriptures within the writings and the Prophets that spoke of, and had reference to, the subjects of the Torah parashat readings; that way they were neither in rebellion to the authorities to whom they were captive, nor lacking in their yearly readings.

Ma’aser, tithes to the levites. God made an agreement with the Kohanim, so He made one with the Levites, who would receive the first 10% of each farmers’ produce. This regular tithe amounted to the supporting the servants of the priests of the Lord. This is the origin of the tithes commonly referred to in many of todays denominations. Interesting when it comes to money that this old testament observance is included in modern Christianity and other old testament scriptures are ignored or ‘done away with’!

These tithes were to feed those who were 100% dedicated to the Lord and had no other means of support. In obedience to doing the Lords will for their life they owned no land and had no other source of income but the Lord. These tithes were not given for constructing buildings or other projects; or to be used by the kohanim to make themselves comfortable. Somewhere along the way we have missed the real reason for the tithe and since 70AD with no temple, and no priesthood, no tithes were given/received? And now instead of produce its mostly in the form of money, not physical food etc. So this was given to the Israelites and all those connected to the covenant which revolved around the annual harvests and Gods’ Appointed Times; yet we dismiss that part as not relevant to our walk….hmmmmm!!!? One wonders is this selective observance of scripture, just doing what we feel comfortable with or what we are told to do??? Nowhere does Yeshua/Jesus tell us to give of our income just for projects inspired by men, but rather to give where there is real need, to the poor, to the needy for food, clothing, shelter, etc. We are to give liberally and joyfully.

2 Cor. 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

Prov. 19:17 He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD, and his good deed will he pay him again.Jesus reminds us that our giving is ultimately to the all-seeing heavenly Father.

Deuteronomy 15:10. Give generously to him and do so without a grudging heart; 

Jesus said “When you give . . . ; your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you” (Matthew 6:3-4).

ברית מלח

Many things have natural salt and salt is added to food to enhance the original flavors.

We see the equivalent in our spiritual walk salt, when we are salty we give flavor to life, to ours and to those around us.

In many recipes, it is an ingredient that needs to be carefully measured or too much will spoil the result; so with us, we are to be led by His Ruach and give out just the right amount; not over salting but in a balanced portion so it can be enjoyed and ingested and not overdone. In the same way as Proverbs 25:16,27, tells us to be cautious about overeating honey!

The food we are to eat in order to feed our spirits and maintain a healthy walk, is found in His Word,

Our daily bread, our manna from heaven.

Added salt increases its satisfying properties, and we all know how salty food makes us thirsty, so then we look for water and again a type of His Word.

Washing of the water of the Word and when we come to Yeshua/Jesus, we will never thirst again spiritually, for He is the source of the wellspring, the water of the river of eternal life/chaim.

The covenant of salt symbolizes:

loyalty,

honesty,

and it represents that which is

a lasting or preserved covenant.

 

Mentioned earlier, some of the Eastern people still use the phrase:

There is salt between us. 

In Bible times, they understood that the

covenant of salt

meant that they would keep their word at all costs!

It is important that we are aware of these things as we immerse ourself into the world of our Heavenly Fathers’ people and their spiritual life.

Salt in Water Produces Fire!

In this context salt is employed to express the preserving, purifying, divine spiritual energy, which is also spoken of as fire.

The two emblems produce the same result.

They both salt….

That is, they cleanse/purify and keep/preserve.  

Mark 9:49-50 “For everyone will be seasoned with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt. Salt is good, but if the salt loses its flavor, how will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace with one another”

  1. 4:6 “Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one”. John 15:13 “Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends”. 

There is also a custom of a Salt bath for newborn babies. Newborn babies were rubbed with salt symbolizing that they would grow up and

say what they mean, and mean what they say!

Ezek. 16: 1 Again the word of Yahweh came to me, saying, 2 Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her abominations; 3 and say, Thus says the Lord Yahweh to Jerusalem: Your birth and your birth is of the land of the Canaanite; the Amorite was your father, and your mother was a Hittite. 4 As for your birth, in the day you were born your navel was not cut, neither were you washed in water to cleanse you; you weren’t salted at all, nor swaddled at all.

Mark 9:50. Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.

The question is

R U salty

are we salty

are we the salt and light of this world??

Or

are we the ones being trampled underfoot

by the feet of the oppressing enemy?

This enemy is to be under our feet;

so let’s be the salty ones.

Those who are full of His flavor, then, when truth seekers come to us we can say… taste and see that the Lord is good.

And the food that we offer them will be seasoned in perfect quantity.

It is our responsibility to fill up with this meat in due season and be seasoned with salt, so that we have an encouraging and appropriate, right in the moment word in that season, for every hungry heart. 

We are the seasoning of this age

and in this hour

we
