Answer: Ephesus

"The city clerk quieted the crowd and said: 'Men of Ephesus, doesn't all the world know that the city of Ephesus is the guardian of the temple of the great Artemis and of her image, which fell from heaven?'" Acts 19:35 (NIV)

2. Where did Absalom flee to after slaying his brother Amnon?

Answer: Geshur

This account can be found in 2 Samuel 13:32-38 (NIV). Absalom killed his brother Amnon for the rape of his sister Tamar. He fled to Geshur where he remained for three years.

3. What was the name of him who sat on the white horse that John saw in his vision in Revelation?

Answer: Faithful and true

"I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True." Revelation 19:11 (NIV).

4. What or who was "Nehushtan"?

Answer: Moses' bronze snake

While in the desert, God struck the Israelites with a plague of snakes for complaining about the food. Moses erected a bronze snake so that when the people looked at it, they would live. Over the years, the Israelites began burning incense to it. Its name was Nehushtan, which could mean bronze or snake or unclean thing. Hezekiah, the king of Judah, later destroyed it. 2 Kings 18:4 (NIV)

5. What did Moses do to make the water of Marah sweet?

Answer: He threw in wood

The Israelites wandered in the desert for three days without finding water. When they came to Marah the water was bitter and they could not drink it. "Then Moses cried out to the Lord, and the lord showed him a piece of wood. He threw it into the water, and the water became sweet." Exodus 15:25 (NIV)

6. Who did Jesus say took away the key of knowledge and hindered those entering in?

Answer: Experts in the law

This is one of the six woes. Luke 11:52 (NIV) says, "Woe to you experts in the law, because you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering."

7. To which church did the Son of God say, "You are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked"?

Answer: Church at Laodicea

Revelation 3:14-17 of the New International Version tells us what the Son of God said to the church at Laodicea. "You say, 'I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.' But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked."

8. Where were two of the disciples going when Jesus joined them after his resurrection?

Answer: Emmaus

"Now that same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem. They were talking with each other about everything that had happened. As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked with them, but they were kept from recognizing him." This story is told in Luke 24:13 (NIV).

9. The author of which letter addresses the letter "to the chosen lady and her children"?

Answer: 2 John

This is the introduction to 2 John. (NIV) "The elder, to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in the truth -- and not I only, but also all who know the truth."

10. In the parable of the good Samaritan, who was the second person to encounter the injured man?

Answer: A Levite

Luke 10:30-36 of the New International Version tells us about a man that was going to Jericho and was unfortunate to meet with a band of robbers who beat him up and left him for dead. A priest happened upon him and passed by on the other side of the road. So too, did a Levite. But a Samaritan took pity on him and bandaged his wounds, took him to an inn and took care of him.
