accusative case) towards, upon, etc.:--about (the times), above, after,

1).
This phrase was used by Jesus on a number of occasions to his disciples that if
any would reject the message of the gospel, they were to shake of the dust off
their clothes and sandals of that house or city as a show of contempt toward
that city or that house’s rejection of the kingdom. Probably the best one that
illustrates that is a verse in Luke.
a). Luke 10:11 Even the very dust of your city, which
cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this,
that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
b). Other passages that use this phrase are Matthew
10:1-15; Mark 6:7-13; Luke 9:1-6.

the others being supplied by a kindred (middle voice) eleuthomai
el-yoo'-thom-ahee, or (active) eltho el'-tho, which do not otherwise occur) to
come or go (in a great variety of applications, literally and
figuratively):--accompany, appear, bring, come, enter, fall out, go, grow, X
light, X next, pass, resort, be set.]
b. unto [Strong: 1519 * eis ice a
