And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel.'

Answer: Commiting adultery with Bathsheba

According to the introductory notes to Psalm 51 in the NKJV Bible, David wrote the prayer of repentance after he was confronted by Nathan the prophet about his committing adultery with Bathsheba and his subsequent actions. The notes at the beginning of Psalm 51 state, "To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David when Nathan the prophet went to him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba." David committed adultery with Bathsheba after her husband Uriah was away at war. However, when she became pregnant things spiraled out of control with David orchestrating the death of Uriah and then taking Bathsheba as his wife. (See 2 Samuel 11) Here's how Psalm 51 reads in the NKJV: "Have mercy upon me, O God, According to Your loving kindness; According to the multitude of Your tender mercies, Blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, And cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions, And my sin is always before me. Against You, You only, have I sinned, And done this evil in Your sight -- That You may be found just when You speak, And blameless when You judge. Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, And in sin my mother conceived me. Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts, And in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Make me hear joy and gladness, That the bones You have broken may rejoice. Hide Your face from my sins, And blot out all my iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me away from Your presence, And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, And uphold me by Your generous Spirit. Then I will teach transgressors Your ways, And sinners shall be converted to You. Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God, The God of my salvation, And my tongue shall sing aloud of Your righteousness. O Lord, open my lips, And my mouth shall show forth Your praise. For You do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it; You do not delight in burnt offering. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, A broken and a contrite heart -- These, O God, You will not despise. Do good in Your good pleasure to Zion; Build the walls of Jerusalem. Then You shall be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, With burnt offering and whole burnt offering; Then they shall offer bulls on Your altar." Psalm 51 has been set to modern music and it is sung in various churches today.

Answer: None could be disobeyed, they all had to be kept.

God gave Moses the ten commandments on Mt. Sinai in Exodus 20, in order that the people of Israel could keep them all and continue to be blessed by Him. Exodus 32:15-16 says, ''Moses then turned and came down the mountain with the two tablets of the covenant in his hands, tablets that were written on both sides, front and back. The tablets were made by God; the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tablets.'' Christ did however say that when we obey His commandment to love God and one another(our neighbour), we automatically fulfill all the commandments in the law.

Answer: Making disciples of all the nations and baptizing them

'The Great Commission', of course, was instructions Jesus gave to the eleven disciples to make disciples of all the nations and to baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Here's how Matthew 28:16-19 reads in the NKJV: "Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had appointed for them. When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some doubted. And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, 'All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age'. Amen." The Great Commission was given to eleven disciples, not twelve, as Judas Iscariot had committed suicide as per Matthew 27:3-10. According to Scripture, Judas betrayed Jesus for thirty pieces of silver and after being filled with tremendous remorse, he took his own life.

Blessed are the meek, For they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful, For they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, For they shall be called sons of God. Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you'."

Answer: Numbers

The verse is found in Numbers 31:38. The 31st chapter of Numbers is an account of Moses sending 12,000 elite Israelite soldiers into battle with the Midiantes and after their subsequent victory, the division of the plunder. To put Verse 38 into context, here's how Numbers 31:32-41 reads in the NKJV: "The booty remaining from the plunder, which the men of war had taken, was six hundred and seventy-five thousand sheep, seventy-two thousand cattle, sixty-one thousand donkeys, and thirty-two thousand persons in all, of women who had not known a man intimately. And the half, the portion for those who had gone out to war, was in number three hundred and thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep; and the LORD'S tribute of the sheep was six hundred and seventy-five. The cattle were thirty-six thousand, of which the LORD'S tribute was seventy-two. The donkeys were thirty thousand five hundred, of which the LORD'S tribute was sixty-one. The persons were sixteen thousand, of which the LORD'S tribute was thirty-two persons. So Moses gave the tribute which was the LORD'S heave offering to Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses."

Answer: Darius

The correct answer is Darius. He replaced Belshazzar shortly after he saw a disembodied hand write on a wall and asked Daniel to interpret things for him. (The NIV says "And Darius the Mede took over the kingdom, at the age of sixty-two," while the KJV says "And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old.") According to the fifth chapter of Daniel, the fingers on a disembodied hand started writing a message on a wall after King Belshazzar hosted a lavish banquet in which he, his wives and his concubines drank from goblets taken from the temple of God in Jerusalem. Scripture states the king's gathering drank the wine from the sacred goblets and "praised the gods of gold and silver, of bronze, iron, wood and stone." When the king brought in the prophet Daniel to interpret the writing on the wall, no punches were pulled. Daniel told the king "God has numbered the days of your reign and brought it to an end". The chapter concludes with these two verses from the NKJV Bible: "That very night Belshazzar, king of the Chaldeans, was slain. And Darius the Mede received the kingdom, being about sixty-two years old." As result, the term 'to see the handwriting on the wall' refers to a situation in which one can envision their misfortune or fall.

Answer: Jeremiah

Jeremiah contains fifty-two chapters. For the record, Genesis has fifty chapters, Psalms has hundred and fifty chapters and Ruth has four. "The Book of Jeremiah perhaps more vividly than any other book of the Bible, reveals the inner struggles of a prophet of God," notes in the NKJV Study Bible state. "In 'confessions' such as those in 15:10-21; 20:7-18, Jeremiah candidly reveals his inner turmoil concerning his call to prophetic ministry." The study notes go on to state: "Indeed the prophet's anguish over the message of judgment upon his people and the coming destruction of the land was at times overwhelming (4:19-22). Yet despite his anguish, Jeremiah fulfilled his ministry of proclaiming God's judgment against the people of Judah for their idolatry, their unfaithfulness to the covenant and their obstinate disobedience of His will. Long acknowledged as one of the great prophets of the Old Testament, Jeremiah serves to this day as an example of someone who remained faithful to the word of God despite countless hardships."

Matthew 1 has twenty-five verses while Matthew 2 has twenty-three verses and Matthew 3 seventeen verses for a total of sixty-five verses. Add on eight more verses -- taking you to Matthew 4:8 -- and you reach the seventy-third verse of the New Testament.

And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, 'If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.' "But He answered and said, 'It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God'.' "Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, 'If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written: 'He shall give His angels charge over you,' and, 'In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone'.' "Jesus said to him, 'It is written again, 'You shall not tempt the Lord your God'.' "Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to Him, 'All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.' "Then Jesus said to him, 'Away with you, Satan! For it is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve'.' "Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him."

Answer: They believe it fortells the suffering of Jesus

Many Christians, myself included, believe the 53rd chapter of Isaiah contains prophecy about the life and suffering of Jesus Christ. Notes in the NKJV Study Bible explains things this way: "Amidst a declaration of the Lord's coming salvation (see 52:7-12; 54:1-10), Isaiah places a portrait of a Suffering Servant (52:13 - 53:12). Despised and rejected (53:3), wounded and bruised (53:5), this unattractive Servant would know heartache and sorrow. What was the reason for His suffering? His life could not be the cause, for He was blameless, speaking only the truth (53:9). Yet the Servant would be led to prison and then to death for our sins (53:6-11). Here's how Isaiah 53 reads in the NKJV: "Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed? For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant, And as a root out of dry ground. He has no form or comeliness; And when we see Him, There is no beauty that we should desire Him. He is despised and rejected by men, A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him; He was despised, and we did not esteem Him. Surely He has borne our griefs And carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; We have turned, every one, to his own way; And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He opened not His mouth; He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, And as a sheep before its shearers is silent, So He opened not His mouth. He was taken from prison and from judgment, And who will declare His generation? For He was cut off from the land of the living; For the transgressions of My people He was stricken. And they made His grave with the wicked- But with the rich at His death, Because He had done no violence, Nor was any deceit in His mouth. Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him; He has put Him to grief. When You make His soul an offering for sin, He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days, And the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in His hand. He shall see the labor of His soul, and be satisfied. By His knowledge My righteous Servant shall justify many, For He shall bear their iniquities. Therefore I will divide Him a portion with the great, And He shall divide the spoil with the strong, Because He poured out His soul unto death, And He was numbered with the transgressors, And He bore the sin of many, And made intercession for the transgressors."

Answer: Og

Og is the correct answer. The NIV 1984 edition describes Og's bed as being more than thirteen feet long and six feet wide. The KJV, NKJV as well as the standard NIV describe the bed as being nine cubits long and four cubits wide. (When nine cubits and four cubits are converted to feet, it comes to 13.5 feet and six feet.) Deuteronomy 3:3 in the NKJV Bible states the Israelites scored a decisive victory over Og's army: "So the LORD our God also delivered into our hands Og king of Bashan, with all his people, and we attacked him until he had no survivors remaining." Then there's the fascinating information in Deuteronomy 3:11 in the NIV 1984 Bible about Og's massive bed. The passage states: "Only Og king of Bashan was left of the remnant of the Rephaites. His bed was made of iron and was more than thirteen feet long and six feet wide. It is still in Rabbah of the Ammonites."
