10 Question Religion Quiz: Bible Basics | The Bible

Answer: Genesis

The first book is the one that talks about Adam and Eve. There are still some today who debate on who's really at fault for Adam eating that fruit. The result, nonetheless, led them to getting kicked out of Eden, amongst other punishments.

Answer: 4

Yes, there are four of them: 1 John, 2 John, 3 John and of course the Gospel of John. 1, 2, 3 John are not very long. There are also some that have been written by him but are not given his name, like Revelation.

Answer: Jacob

Eliud was the father of Eleazar; who was the father of Matthan; who was the father of Jacob; who was the father of Joseph; who is married to Mary, the mother of Christ.

Answer: yes

Yes, this is true. Although there are different points in each of the four books, they all tell about the same time period. It is kind of neat to see things from a different view. It just goes to show you that we all see things differently. In some Bibles they are called the gospel according to Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Today when we take something as gospel that is like saying that is the honest truth. So all four were giving their honest truth about what it is they saw.

The first three gospels are known as the synoptic gospels. St John's gospel is telling the same story, but is written in a different style.

Answer: Ruth

Judith and Susanna can be found in Catholic Bibles.

Answer: 1

There is just one, the Book of Judith. The apocrypha also include an extra passage for the Book of Daniel -- the story of Susanna -- which is not a book, as well as extra passages for the Book of Esther. For you who do not know about the Apocrypha, it is a set of additional books in some versions of the Bible (recognized by some denominations but not by others), which I was not aware of.

The good quiz editor gave me the heads up on this one. So I hope that this question was not too confusing for you.

Answer: James

The lesson that Jude is trying to give in this letter is that there are people among them who are not as they seem. They are trying to say that once you have Christ in your life you can go on and do as you please without punishment. He reminds them of the people The Lord caused Moses to lead out of Egypt, then allowed to die in the desert, because they did not trust and obey Him.

Answer: Paul

One interesting thing about Paul is that in his letters to Timothy he signs them, Paul, "Jesus Christ's missionary sent out by God". In the letter to Titus he signs his letter, "the slave of God and the messenger of Jesus Christ".

Answer: 2

He just has two. These two books are actually letters from Paul a missionary of Jesus Christ, to Timothy.

Answer: 12
