• This is sealed by covenant as a perpetual, an eternal, portion. Hence the salt of the covenant of our God was not wanting in the sacrifice, in any sacrifice; the stability, the durability, the preservative energy of that which was divine, not always, perhaps, to us sweet and agreeable, was there-the seal, on the part of God, that it was no passing savor, no momentary delight, but eternal. (“Leviticus 2” by J.N. Darby)
• Leaven and honey, our sin and natural affections, cannot find a place in the sacrifice of God, but the energy of His grace (not sparing the evil, but securing the good) is there to seal our infallible enjoyment of its effects and fruits. Salt did not form the offering, but it was never to be wanting in any-could not be in what was of God; it was indeed in every offering. (“Leviticus 2” by J.N. Darby)
