Bible Question: What is the covenant of salt? What does it mean? |
Bible Answer: " . . . The phrase 'covenant of salt' . . . remains obscure . . . A 'covenant of salt' is perhaps an allusion to the salt used in the sacrificial meal that commonly accompanied the making of a covenant (see Gen 31:54; Ex 24:5-11; Ps 50:5). (Zondervan NASB Study Bible, p. 204) |
