To owe; to be under obligation for. [Obs.] [bd]By the             faith I shall to God[b8] --Court of Love.          2. To be obliged; must. [Obs.] [bd]Me athinketh [I am sorry]             that I shall rehearse it her.[b8] --Chaucer.          3. As an auxiliary, shall indicates a duty or necessity whose             obligation is derived from the person speaking; as, you             shall go; he shall go; that is, I order or promise your             going. It thus ordinarily expresses, in the second and             third persons, a command, a threat, or a promise. If the             auxillary be emphasized, the command is made more             imperative, the promise or that more positive and sure. It             is also employed in the language of prophecy; as, [bd]the             day shall come when . . ., [b8] since a promise or threat             and an authoritative prophecy nearly coincide in             significance. In shall with the first person, the             necessity of the action is sometimes implied as residing             elsewhere than in the speaker; as, I shall suffer; we             shall see; and there is always a less distinct and             positive assertion of his volition than is indicated by             will. [bd]I shall go[b8] implies nearly a simple futurity;             more exactly, a foretelling or an expectation of my going,             in which, naturally enough, a certain degree of plan or             intention may be included; emphasize the shall, and the             event is described as certain to occur, and the expression             approximates in meaning to our emphatic [bd]I will go.[b8]             In a question, the relation of speaker and source of             obligation is of course transferred to the person             addressed; as, [bd]Shall you go?[b8] (answer, [bd]I shall             go[b8]); [bd]Shall he go?[b8] i. e., [bd]Do you require or             promise his going?[b8] (answer, [bd]He shall go[b8].) The             same relation is transferred to either second or third             person in such phrases as [bd]You say, or think, you shall             go;[b8] [bd]He says, or thinks, he shall go.[b8] After a             conditional conjunction (as if, whether) shall is used in             all persons to express futurity simply; as, if I, you, or             he shall say they are right. Should is everywhere used in             the same connection and the same senses as shall, as its             imperfect. It also expresses duty or moral obligation; as,             he should do it whether he will or not. In the early             English, and hence in our English Bible, shall is the             auxiliary mainly used, in all the persons, to express             simple futurity. (Cf. {Will}, v. t.) Shall may be used             elliptically; thus, with an adverb or other word             expressive of motion go may be omitted. [bd]He to England             shall along with you.[b8] --Shak.          Note: Shall and will are often confounded by inaccurate                speakers and writers.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Salt       used to season food (Job 6:6), and mixed with the fodder of       cattle (Isa. 30:24, "clean;" in marg. of R.V. "salted"). All       meat-offerings were seasoned with salt (Lev. 2:13). To eat salt       with one is to partake of his hospitality, to derive subsistence       from him; and hence he who did so was bound to look after his       host's interests (Ezra 4:14, "We have maintenance from the       king's palace;" A.V. marg., "We are salted with the salt of the       palace;" R.V., "We eat the salt of the palace").                A "covenant of salt" (Num. 18:19; 2 Chr. 13:5) was a covenant       of perpetual obligation. New-born children were rubbed with salt       (Ezek. 16:4). Disciples are likened unto salt, with reference to       its cleansing and preserving uses (Matt. 5:13). When Abimelech       took the city of Shechem, he sowed the place with salt, that it       might always remain a barren soil (Judg. 9:45). Sir Lyon       Playfair argues, on scientific grounds, that under the generic       name of "salt," in certain passages, we are to understand       petroleum or its residue asphalt. Thus in Gen. 19:26 he would       read "pillar of asphalt;" and in Matt. 5:13, instead of "salt,"       "petroleum," which loses its essence by exposure, as salt does       not, and becomes asphalt, with which pavements were made.                The Jebel Usdum, to the south of the Dead Sea, is a mountain       of rock salt about 7 miles long and from 2 to 3 miles wide and       some hundreds of feet high.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Shield       used in defensive warfare, varying at different times and under       different circumstances in size, form, and material (1 Sam.       17:7; 2 Sam. 1:21; 1 Kings 10:17; 1 Chr. 12:8, 24, 34; Isa.       22:6; Ezek. 39:9; Nahum 2:3).                Used figuratively of God and of earthly princes as the       defenders of their people (Gen. 15:1; Deut. 33:29; Ps. 33:20;       84:11). Faith is compared to a shield (Eph. 6:16).                Shields were usually "anointed" (Isa. 21:5), in order to       preserve them, and at the same time make the missiles of the       enemy glide off them more easily.
