Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. This parent of John the Baptist became temporarily mute because he did not believe the angel Gabriel. Who was he?

Answer: Zacharias

John the Baptist's birth announcement to Zacharias is included in Luke 1:5-25. The angel Gabriel proclaimed that the wife of Zacharias would bear a son and his name would be John. Zacharias was unbelieving because of his age as well as the age of his wife, Elizabeth. Gabriel then told Zacharias that he would be mute until the day that these things took place. On the day of John's circumcision and naming, Luke 1:59-66, Zacharias wrote the name John on a tablet and immediately he could speak.
2. He killed his brother, rebelled against his father, got caught in a tree and received three spears in the heart. Who was this third son of King David?

Answer: Absalom

Absalom was the third son of King David (2 Samuel 3:3).
He killed his brother, Amnon, in 2 Samuel 13:23-33.
He rebelled against his father in 2 Samuel 15:10.
He was caught in a tree, by the hair and was killed with the three spears in the heart in 2 Samuel 18:9,14.
3. His great uncle was Moses, his grandfather was Aaron and his father was Eleazar. Who was he?

Answer: Phinehas

The genealogy of Moses and Aaron is part of Numbers 6:14-27.
4. What were the names of Dinah's parents?

Answer: Jacob and Leah

Leah's children were Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Zebulun and Dinah. (Genesis 30:21, 35:23.)
Rachel's sons were Joseph and Benjamin. (Genesis 35:24.)
Bilhah's sons were Dan and Naphtali. (Genesis 35:25.)
Zilpah's sons were Gad and Asher. (Genesis 35:26.)
5. This Zebedee brother combination was called the "Sons of Thunder". Who were they?

Answer: James and John

Maybe because of their overly enthusiastic approach, as in Luke 9:52-54 -- when John and James wanted to call down fire from heaven on the Samaritan village that had refused to receive Jesus and the disciples -- Jesus called them "sons of thunder" in Mark 3:17.
6. Paul wrote a letter to a young pastor in Ephesus, in which he compared the faith of this pastor with that of his grandmother Lois and mother Eunice. What is this pastor's name?

Answer: Timothy

Timothy was that young pastor in Ephesus. Paul noted in his second letter to Timothy (2 Timothy 1:5), that the same faith that had been started in the grandmother and mother also resided within Timothy.
7. Elimelech and Naomi took their sons and went to Moab, due to the famine in Bethlehem. What were their son's names?

Answer: Mahlon and Chilion

In the Book of Ruth, Elimelech and Naomi took their family to Moab because of the famine in Bethlehem. While in Moab, Elimelech died. The sons both married and then they also died. Naomi decided to go back to Bethlehem. One daughter-in-law, Orpah, stayed in Moab; the other, Ruth, went with Naomi to Bethlehem.
8. When Zelophehad died, his daughter received a part of the inheritance because he had no male offspring. Who was she?

Answer: Noah

Numbers 27:1-11 tells the story of Noah and her sisters as they petitioned for the rights to their father's promised land inheritance, since he had died in the wilderness with no male heirs. This Noah was a young woman.
9. This father of Shem, Ham and Japheth planted a vineyard and drank of the wine. Who was he?

Genesis 9:18-21 is just part of what Noah did, after coming out of the ark.
10. He was a judge in Israel, the son of Gera, and a left-handed man. What was his name?

Answer: Ehud

The story of Ehud is located in Judges 3:12-30.
