Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In which book of the Old Testament would you find this verse? "Then Pharaoh gave this order to all his people: 'Every boy that is born you must throw into the Nile, but let every girl live.'"

Answer: Exodus

Exodus 1:22 The new Pharaoh who came to power said in verse 9: "'Look,' he said to his people, 'the Israelites have become much too numerous for us.'" The different accounts of infanticide told in both the New and Old Testaments I find quite interesting.

Answer: Numbers

Numbers 1:1 The Lord had instructed Moses to take a census of the entire community by clans and families. They were then to number them by their divisions all men twenty years old or more who were able to serve in the army.

Answer: Ruth

Ruth 1:1 They come all this way and all the men die after about ten years. While in Moab Naomi hears that the Lord has brought relief to His people and she prepares to leave with her two daughter-in-laws. She then tells them to go back home to their mothers and asks that the Lord would bless them with new husbands. This is a wonderful story to read.

4. In which book of the Old Testament would you find this verse? "He had two wives; one was called Hannah and the other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had none."

Answer: 1 Samuel

1 Samuel 1:2 Hannah's husband Elkanah loved her dearly even though she had not borne him any sons. Peninnah would lord it over Hannah and caused her great anguish. Hannah made a vow to God, saying, "O LORD Almighty, if you will only look upon your servant's misery and remember me, and not forget your servant but give her a son, then I will give him to the LORD for all the days of his life, and no razor will ever be used on his head." God blessed her with Samuel who grew up to do great things in the name of the Lord.

Answer: Judges

Judges 1:4 After Joshua had died, the Israelites wanted to know from God what tribe would be first in continuing their fight. The Lord answered them, "Judah is to go; I have given the land into their hands."

Answer: Isaiah

Isaiah 66:24 This is the last verse in the book of Isaiah. God is telling them in verse 22, "'As the new heavens and the new earth that I make will endure before me,' declares the LORD, 'so will your name and descendants endure.'"

Answer: Malachi

Malachi 1:2-3 Malachi as many know is the last book in the Old Testament. The last of what are known as the "Minor Prophets," it has a lot to tell. In it Malachi scolds the people for their impiety and also foretells the coming of the Messiah.

8. In which book of the Old Testament would you find this verse? "Then I sent Moses and Aaron, and I afflicted the Egyptians by what I did there, and I brought you out."

Answer: Joshua

Joshua 24:5 This is the last chapter of Joshua. Here Joshua assembled all the tribes of Israel at Shechem. He then proceeds to tell them what the Lord has told him outlining their history and what He wants them to do.

9. In which book of the Old Testament would you find this verse? "I know that you can do all things; no plan of yours can be thwarted."

Answer: Job

Job 42:2 Again we have the last chapter of the book of Job. Job is one of the more recognized people in the Old Testament. After all the trouble that Job went through it is very comforting to remember that he was restored to much more than he had lost.

Answer: Joshua

Joshua 1:2 This was the Lord speaking to Joshua and reassuring him that as He was with Moses He would also be with Joshua. The Lord told him, "Your territory will extend from the desert to Lebanon, and from the great river, the Euphrates to the Great Sea on the west."
