Sažetak

Although the Bible is not the only source of either the science or economics, there are topics from economics, ideas, thoughts and concepts to be found in it. Consequently issues such as the selection process and decision making, money, wealth, interest, taxes, salaries, unemployment, entrepreneurship, planning, but also the risk, profit, loss and opportunity cost can be found. Behind these topics different spiritual messages are hidden; nevertheless, on one hand they reflect the period in which they were born and on the other hand they shed light on a particular economic issue. As far as economic issues and thoughts are concerned, the Bible sends a unique message whereby there is no necessity to distinguish the Old from the New Testament. According to the Bible there is an inseparable link between morality, i.e. moral behaviour and economic well-being.
