Salt is good: but if the salt has lost its taste, how shall it be restored?
All Commentaries on Luke 14:34 Go To Luke 14
Cyril of Alexandria
AD 444
“Salt is good, but if the salt becomes tasteless, with what can it be seasoned? It is cast out,” he says. He continues, “Let there be salt in you,” that is, the divine words that bring salvation. If we despise these, we become tasteless, foolish and utterly useless. The congregation of the saints must throw out these things, by the gift of mercy and love to them from Christ, the Savior of us all. Commentary on Luke, Homily
