This is a confusing parable. The master is dismisses the steward for squandering his property; but is this after he forgives debtors of his master for his own ends.

For me the parable speaks to using and sharing fairly the gifts of your own, or those under your care prudently and faithfully. There will be an accounting in the end. In this case the master congratulates the steward for his cleverness, but it was not borne out of charity. It was purely for his own ends.

Gospel Lk 16:1-8
