The reference to "trodden under the feet of all men" contrasts with Matthew 5:13, shortly after the Beatitudes: "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot." But those who are the light of the world will not be trampled underfoot and this does not glorify Jesus.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
