Daniel Trivia Quiz

Answer: Jehoiakim

Daniel 1:1 "In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon unto Jerusalem, and besieged it."

Jehoiakim is the son of Josiah and his name means "Yahwek establishes". (Holman Illustrated Pocket Bible Dictionary)

Answer: Nebuchadnezzar

Daniel 2:16 "Then Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would give him time, and that he would shew the king the interpretation."

Bible scholars believe that Nebuchadnezzar's dream was a vision of what is to come in the end times. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nebuchadnezzar's_statue_vision_in_Daniel_2

Answer: Abednego

Daniel 3:16-18 "Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.

If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.

But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up."

Abednego was the Babylonian name of Azariah.

Answer: Belteshazzar

Daniel 4:8a "But at the last Daniel came in before me, whose name was Belteshazzar, according to the name of my God, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods."

The name Belteshazzar means "protect the king's life".

Answer: He was not hurt

Daniel 6:22 "My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt."

This shouldn't have surprised the Babylonians too much since Daniel's God was the same God that earlier had saved Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego from the fiery furnace.

Answer: The King of Grecia

Daniel 8:21 "And the rough goat is the king of Grecia: and the great horn that is between his eyes is the first king."

Grecia refers to Greece, not the place of the same name that is in Costa Rica.

Answer: 3 full weeks

Daniel 10:2 "In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks."

Daniel was mourning because of what was happening in Babylon with all of the destruction that was happening.

Answer: Hiddekel

Daniel 10:4 "And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel."

The modern name for the Hiddekel is the Tigris.

Answer: No

Daniel 11:42 "He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape."

This verse is also prophetic of the end times according to the Christian belief.

Answer: days

Daniel 12:13 "But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days."

I hope you enjoyed my quiz on Daniel. The next quiz will be on the book of Hosea.
