Listen "Salt: Worth Your Salt? Ancient Currency & Judgement!"
Episode Synopsis
We explore salt's historical significance, from Roman currency to its metaphorical weight. We examine its value, from purity and righteousness to potential destruction and judgment, drawing parallels to Lot's wife.
Salt, a valuable commodity. The ancient world called it salt money, because again, the Romans sometimes were paid in salt. You hear the saying, "Are you worth your salt?" Well, are you or are you nothing?
Are you worthless? Are you destructive? Are you worth your salt? Are you good for anything? Can we rely on you, build upon you? Will you bring purity and righteousness and, and holiness and loyalty, or will you bring schisms and destruction? Are you nothing but a troublemaker, a jezebel?
Is your salt worthless? Are you ready for judgment like Lot's wife?
