Reminds me a bit of Robin Hood (steal from the rich, give to the poor )

Craig, thanks for your lively presentation. Are you open to an unorthodox idea? The steward was "accused of being wasteful," but Jesus was also "accused of wasting his time with sinners." Although the steward was holding a copy of the contract that showed the debts, he asked the debtors to honestly report their debt. Jesus already knows our sins, but he asks us to honestly report our debts (sins) to him. Jesus knows that we cannot pay God back for all our sins (the debts we owe). Is there a possibility that the steward in this story knew that for some reason, such as bad crops that year due to bad weather, that it was not possible for the debtors to pay their debts in full? In that situation, getting partial repayment from the sincere debtors was the best the master could have hoped for. In verse 8, could commending the steward indicate the God was very pleased with the way Jesus carried out his ministry on earth?
