No, that is wrong below. The term "city on a hill" comes from the Bible and was used by John Winthrop in 1630. He stated " we shall be as a city upon a hill, the eyes of all people are upon us." Then, in 1974 Reagan gave a speech called We will be a city upon a hill at the conservative political action convention. JFK also used the term in a speech.
No.
The "city on a hill" comes from The Bible and Jesus's sermon on the Mount. When the Piligrams left they brought with them the idea of a city on the hill as an example of how life should be lived and conducted. They believed that the English church was filled too much ceremony and should be more simple. So, when they built their colony they kept to the simplicity, taught from the Bible, and had strict rules concerning behavior within the colony.
