Answer: Song of Solomon

The Song of Solomon is a book of poetry that, according to the NWT, was written by Solomon himself in 1120 BCE.

Solomon is between Ecclesiastes and Isaiah in the New World Translation.

Answer: Exodus

The first letters of the first nine questions are HICKSODDES. If you put spaces to make three words, you get HICKS ODD ES. This is the final fracture; say it fast and it sounds like Exodus.

One belief is that Exodus was written by Moses while he was in the wilderness. The writing was completed in 1512 BCE, and covers a 145-year span between 1657 and 1512 BCE. Exodus can be found between Genesis and Leviticus in the NWT.
