Každou obět vzhůru pozdvižení z věcí posvěcených, kteréž přinášejí synové Izraelští Hospodinu, dal jsem tobě, a synům tvým, i dcerám tvým s tebou ustanovením věčným, smlouvou trvánlivou a věčnou před Hospodinem, tobě i semeni tvému s tebou.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
All the heave offerings of the holy things,.... All before mentioned, and whatsoever comes under that name:
which the children of Israel offer unto the Lord; either by his commandment, or of their own freewill;
have I given thee, and thy sons, and thy daughters with thee, by a statute for ever: so providing for their maintenance by an irrepealable law as long as their priesthood lasted, even until the Messiah should come:
it [is] a covenant of salt for ever before the Lord unto thee, and thy seed with thee: an incorruptible, inviolable, durable covenant, which should last for ever, even until the Gospel dispensation or world to come should take place; and it would remain ever before the Lord in his sight, who would take care it should never be made void, but stand fast with Aaron and his posterity as long as his priesthood endured.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A covenant of salt - Compare the marginal reference. covenants were ordinarily cemented in the East by the rites of hospitality; of which salt was the obvious token, entering as it does into every article of diet. It indicates perpetuity: compare Leviticus 2:13 note.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Numbers 18:19. It is a covenant of salt — That is, an incorruptible, everlasting covenant. As salt was added to different kinds of viands, not only to give them a relish, but to preserve them from putrefaction and decay, it became the emblem of incorruptibility and permanence. Hence, a covenant of salt signified an everlasting covenant. We have already seen that, among the Asiatics, eating together was deemed a bond of perpetual friendship; and as salt was a common article in all their repasts, it may be in reference to this circumstance that a perpetual covenant is termed a covenant of salt; because the parties ate together of the sacrifice offered on the occasion, and the whole transaction was considered as a league of endless friendship. Leviticus 2:13; Leviticus 2:13.
