LESSON #11:
“SALT OF THE EARTH”
At one time, salt was so valuable and scarce that
soldiers were paid their wages in salt. Thus the
saying, “It’s worth a grain of salt.”
Understanding its value, Jesus speaks of salt that
has lost its savor and becomes worthless. The
Romans paved their mighty roads with such
worthless salt. Here it now: “You are the salt of the
earth.”
