The Ten Commandments and the Economy of Faith...

The Catechism of the Catholic Church was a historical document when I read it back in 1995. As the book jacket says it was the first new edition of the catechism in 400 years and its organizational structure seemed new and sensible. It took traditional Church symbols such as the Ten Commandments and expanded on them in a thoughtful and through manner. The more intriguing side to me was the use of the descriptive term "economy" when describing "the faith".  I work with a number of economists so the word did not seem to fit.

Recently decide to Google the term - "catholic use of economy description in catechist" - and this was the first result.
