Smith's Bible Dictionary

The thong or fastening by which the sandal was attached to the foot. It occurs in the proverbial expression in ( Genesis 14:23 ) and is there used to denote something trivial or worthless. Another semi-proverbial expression in ( Luke 3:16 ) points to the fact that the office of bearing and unfastening the shoes of great personages fell to the meanest slaves.
