The wealthy man's skepticism, as detailed in Chapter 47, was multifaceted. He questioned the divine messenger, wondering why God would appear in his wife's dream to ask for his money instead of approaching him directly. He dismissed the vision as a potential 'false dream' resulting from disturbed sleep or even a divine attempt to create a rift between them. Furthermore, he expressed a practical, business-like distrust, feeling that the merchant's way of accounting for the temple renovation was disadvantageous to him. He concluded that accepting such visions as real would be a mistake, thereby rationalizing his unwillingness to part with his money.
