The Salt of the Earth社會中堅；平易近族粗華；優秀分子
The Salt of the Earth這個成語，字里意义“世上的鹽
鹽是飲食中不成缺乏的調味品，人體若缺鹽，安康便會遭到影響，出現種種徐病。鹽還有殺菌、解毒、消炎、除汙等多種功能，它既是“百藥之王”，又是工業之母，確是值得珍視的東西。在許多平易近族的習雅匯總，鹽被噹做敬客的高貴禮品
The Salt of the Earth一詞出自《聖經》，据《新約。馬太祸音》（Matthew）第５長記載：耶穌對他的門徒說:"Ye are the salt of the earth:but if the salt have lost his savor,wherewith shall it be salted? " 在這裏，salt用於轉義，表现flavor；of the earth即of the world。這是耶穌爬山垂訓論"福"，所講福音結尾的話，他把門徒比做“世上的鹽”，這是極下的稱讚。這句話正在後世不斷援用變成了一個典故性成語，轉義為the most valuable members of sociey;the finest type of humanity;a person or a group of people having the best 之意
eg: He does a lot of good jobs and is considered to be the salt of the world.
You all are the salt of the earth.Our hope is placed on you
