 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Mammon
If we accept the derivation from 'mn we may render it "riches in which men trust", and it is remarkable that the Sept. of Ps.
xxxvii, 3, renders 'mwgh by plouto, or "riches", as though hinting at such a derivation.
The expression is common in the Targums, where mmwn is often followed by sqr corresponding to the adikias of Luke, thus see on Prov., xv, 27; but it is noteworthy that Ecclus., v, 8 (10, Vulg.) "goods unjustly gotten" chremasin adikois, reads in Hebrew nks-sqr and not mtmwn.
