- WHO HAS ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD?

Dear Ones,
WHO HAS ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD?
Q: Who has all the money in the world?
A: Satan?
“Mammon … in the New Testament of the Bible is commonly thought to mean money, material wealth, or any entity that promises wealth, and is associated with the greedy pursuit of gain. ‘You cannot serve both God and mammon.’
“In the Middle Ages it was often personified as a deity and sometimes included in the seven princes of Hell. Mammon is a word in Hebrew ממון and it means ‘money’. Mammon is the god of material things.” –from Link: “Mammon,” in Wikipedia … CC BY-SA 3.0
Image: “The Worship of Mammon,” by Evelyn De Morgan, circa 1909, in Wikimedia Commons … https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:The_worship_of_Mammon.jpg … public domain … COMMENTS: Mammon … the personification of lust for money and power, is sometimes termed the a demon that is the son of Satan, and sometimes Beelzebub. I aver that ‘mammon rules this world’. Thus, in a roundabout way, I thought to use this image to illustrate the Biblical thought that Satan is called the “god of this world who can blind the minds of men” … But in the case of this painting, it is desire for lucre that captivates the mind of a woman. –Alice B. Clagett
