City upon a Hill
Phrase derived from the parable of Salt and Light
City upon a Hill
"City upon a hill" is a phrase derived from the teaching of salt and light in Jesus's Sermon on the Mount in the New Testament. Originally applied to the city of Boston by early 17th century Puritans, it came to adopt broader use in political rhetoric in United States politics, that of a declaration of American exceptionalism, and referring to America acting as a "beacon of hope" for the world.
