Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In Mark 16, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of Jesus, and Salome went to the tomb three days after the Sabbath had passed.

Answer: False

Mary Magdalene was accompanied by James' mother Mary (not Jesus' mother) and by Salome when she went to the tomb after Jesus was crucified. This was the first sentence in the chapter of Mark 16:1 (KJV).

2. Who rolled the stone away that sealed the tomb of Jesus and then took a seat on top of it in Matthew 28:2 (KJV)?

Answer: Angel

An angel rolled the stone away from the tomb so Jesus could get out and then sat on top of it. This comes from Matthew 28:2 (KJV).

3. When the women saw Jesus in Matthew 28 (KJV), where did Jesus tell them to send the disciples so they could see Him as well?

Answer: Galilee

In Matthew 28:9 (KJV), the risen Jesus told the women to go back to tell the disciples what happened. He went on to tell the women to send the disciples to Galilee so He could see all of them at one time.

4. To whom did the elders give money so they would blame the disciples for stealing Jesus' body from the tomb in Matthew 28 (KJV)?

Answer: Soldiers

The elders heard of Jesus' body disappearing from the tomb and wanted to blame the disciples for it. They gave money to several soldiers to lie and say the disciples stole the body of Jesus so that they could be arrested as well. This took place in Matthew 28:12-13 (KJV)

5. Who was the first person that saw Jesus after He rose from the tomb in Mark 16 (KJV)?

Answer: Mary Magdalene

Mary Magdalene saw Jesus first after He had risen from the tomb. She was unaware of who He was and believed Him to be the gardener. Mary Magdalene, believing the gardener knew where the body of Jesus was, begged Him to return the body to the tomb in Mark 16:8 (KJV).

6. Proving himself to be the faster of the two in John 20 (KJV), who outran Peter to arrive at the empty tomb first?

Answer: John

John is only named as the disciple whom Jesus loved in John 20:4 (KJV). After being told of the missing body, John and Peter ran to the tomb. John was the faster of the two and arrived at the tomb first to see that Jesus was indeed missing from His tomb.

7. After appearing before the disciples, in which of the gospels did Jesus tell his disciples to "Go ye therefore and teach all nations" before he ascended into Heaven?

Answer: Matthew and Mark

The directive that Jesus gave His disciples in Matthew 28:18-20 and Mark 15:16 (both KJV) is known as the great commission. Before ascending into Heaven to be with His father, Jesus gave the disciples a mission and that was to teach the nations about Him.

8. Which disciple doubted Jesus had really been resurrected until Jesus allowed him to touch the scars in His hand and side that were made by the soldiers?

Answer: Thomas

While in the upper room with Jesus and the other disciples in John 20:24-29 (KJV), Jesus told Thomas to touch the scars in his hands and side so he would know that the man in front of him was really Jesus Christ. Thomas did and instantly believed.

9. While at the sea of Tiberias in John 21 (KJV), how many times did Jesus ask Simon Peter to "Feed My Sheep (Lambs)"?

Answer: Three

The disciples were on the sea of Tiberias with Jesus, when He asked Simon Peter if the disciple would "feed My sheep". He asked this of Simon Peter three times and each time the disciple answered that he would. This exchange took place in John 21:14-18 (KJV).

10. After he rose from the dead, Jesus appeared to His disciples three times in John 21 (KJV) before his Ascension.

Answer: True

According to John 21:14 (KJV), Jesus appeared to his disciples three times before he ascended into Heaven. The first time He appeared to the disciples in the upper room after they were instructed to gather there. The second time he appeared to Thomas so that his doubting disciple could see and feel the scars in His hands and feet.

The third time Jesus appeared to Simon Peter and other disciples at the Lake of Tiberias to ask Simon Peter to "feed My sheep".
