Catena Aurea · Matthäusevangelium 5
Mt 5, 13English original
Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
The Apostles are the salt of the earth, that is, of worldly men who are called the earth, because they love this earth.
