Luke 14:34      Luke 15:1

Luke 14:35

It is good for neither the soil nor the manure heap. It is thrown away.
[Pure salt, sodium chloride, which we use today, does not lose its saltiness. However, the type of salt that was produced from the Dead Sea and to which Jesus probably referred could lose its saltiness because it also contained other minerals. If exposed to moisture in the environment, it could be leached out. It is when salt is mixed with other substances that it loses its potency. The word for "loses its saltiness" can also mean "foolishness" and is translated that way in Rom. 1:22 and 1 Cor. 1:20. This meaning reinforces how a rash decision to follow Jesus becomes foolishness, in the same way as the man who began to build a tower or the man who rashly went to war, see verses 28-32.
This passage began with "great multitudes," see verse 25. Just as a little salt is enough to flavor an entire dish, it is not the number of disciples that determines whether they influence the world around them, but rather their quality that is decisive.]
Listen, you who have ears to hear." [This phrase is often used when a passage may be difficult to understand without the help of the Holy Spirit.]
