Abstract

The present paper tackles two broad theses. According to the first, in the Eastern Orthodox view wealth, riches, material prosperity and whatever these things presuppose (the extended division of labour, trade, money, profit oriented entrepreneurship etc.) are not evil or condemnable in themselves. According to the second, one cannot find a positive sanction of honest wealth and riches.
