Numbers 18:20
"All the wave offerings of the holy things which the children of Israel offer to the LORD, I have given you and your sons and your daughters with you, as a portion forever. It is a covenant of salt forever before the LORD to you and to your offspring with you.”"
Key Reflection
This verse signifies that the Levites are granted a permanent inheritance in the form of wave offerings, representing a perpetual covenant of divine provision and blessing for them and their descendants. The "covenant of salt" emphasizes the eternal nature of this arrangement, symbolizing its unchanging and irrevocable character.
