Exegesis

A conditional protasis is introduced by ean {ἐὰν | e-an} ‘if’, with de {δὲ | de} ‘but’ marking contrast and kai {καὶ | kai} ‘even’ intensifying the scenario: “if even salt become-tasteless,” using the aorist passive subjunctive to portray potential loss of essential quality.

Root and etymology

In contextLuke 14:34

Therefore, salt is good; but if even salt becomes tasteless , by what will it be seasoned ?
