50. Salt is good; but if the salt have lost his saltness--its power
to season what it is brought into contact with.
wherewith will ye season it?--How is this property to be
restored? See on
Mt 5:13.
Have salt in yourselves--See to it that ye retain in yourselves those
precious qualities that will make you a blessing to one another, and to
all around you.
and--with respect to the miserable strife out of which all this
discourse has sprung, in one concluding word.
have peace one with another--This is repeated in
1Th 5:13.
