Matthew 5:13 “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its taste, how can it be made salty again? Then it is good for nothing, but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.”

Mark 9:49 “For everyone will be salted with fire, and every sacrifice will be salted with salt.”

Mark 9:50 “Salt is good. But if the salt loses its saltiness, with what will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another”.

The salt means to have wisdom and don't provoke each other. As Mark 9:50 says, “be at peace with one another”. Use wisdom not to provoke one another and “be at peace with one another” Mark 9:50.

Matthew 22:37 “Jesus said to him, 'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.” Matthew 22:38 “This is the first and great commandment.” Matthew 22:39 “And the second is like it, You shall love your neighbour as yourself.” Matthew 22:40 “All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments'.”

 'Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up. He said: “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared what people thought. And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the plea, ‘Grant me justice against my adversary.’ “For some time he refused. But finally he said to himself, ‘Even though I don’t fear God or care what people think, yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won’t eventually come and attack me!’ ” And the Lord said, “Listen to what the unjust judge says. And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?” 'Luke 18:1-8 NIV This is a parable for teaching the disciples how they should pray if they have difficulty in forgiving a...

 Luke 22:35 "And he said to them, 'When I sent you without purse, bag, and sandals, did you lack anything?' And they said, 'Nothing'" Jesus was not saying this to Peter because when Jesus sent Peter earlier in Mark 6:7-9 he sent him with sandals. Jesus did not send the other disciples out with sandals earlier. Jesus was hoping that Peter wouldn't buy a sword as the other disciples were encouraged to in Luke 22:36.  The two swords in Luke 22:38 may be symbolic of something? Perhaps the Holy Spirit was going to be present at the arrest of Jesus in Peter? The Shepherd was there symbolizing God, Jesus was there symbolizing Jesus but Peter may be present representing the Holy Spirit? Peter may have been representing the Holy Spirit and allowed to even though he denied Jesus three times? This may have been a part of why Peter's denial was so symbolic because he was acting as the representative of the Holy Spirit at the arrest of Jesus. It may have been teach...

 Luke 10:33-34 "But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was. And when he saw him, he had compassion on him,  and went to him, and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine, and set him on his own animal and brought him to an inn and took care of him."  Just like the good Samaritan the Lord sees us when we have a problem and he comes to us. He bandages our wounds pouring on oil and wine. The Good Samaritan spent one day with the man then paid two denarii or two days wages to symbolize three days in total. As if to say the third day the man would rise. Symbolic for the man needed Jesus to resurrect his soul.
