Ἐλάχιστος

Thus Christ named earthly wealth. For He says: "he [who is] trustworthy in the least [thing]." That is, he who knows well how to live and spends his earthly wealth -- which [Christ] also called Mam(m)on¹ -- on the needy. Such a one, found [to be] faithful in the least [thing], will also be faithful in the greatest, that is, in the gracious gifts of God. But he who is unjust in this wealth and keeps it for himself alone, clearly he will be found unjust also in the gracious gifts of God. [Christ] named an abundance of goods "someone else's"; inasmuch as we are not born with wealth, but rather naked; and truly we have brought nothing into the world and can take nothing out.²
