Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Hagar

Genesis 21:17,18 - Hagar had been thrown out of her house along with her son by her mistress, Sarah. When the two of them had finished all the bread and water that they had, Hagar laid her son under a shrub and sat some way off, unable to see her child die. It was then that an angel appeared and showed her a well to quench their thirst, saving them from death.

Earlier Hagar had run away from Sarah's house when she was pregnant with Abraham's child. At that time too an angel had appeared to her and told her to return to her mistress. The angel had foretold the birth of a son to her whom she was to name Ishmael.

Answer: Joseph

Matthew 2:13 - Herod had heard about the birth of a king from the three wise men. Insecure after hearing this, he had ordered his men to kill all newborns up to the age of two years. The angel advised Joseph to take Mary and baby Jesus and escape to Egypt to save the baby's life.

Answer: Samson

Judges 13: 5 - Manoah and his wife were childless since his wife was barren. However, God gave them a son who grew up to be Samson. The angel instructed his parents not to cut his hair since it was his covenant with God and the source of his strength.

4. To whom did an angel appear and offer comfort, saying, "He is not here: for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay"?

Answer: Mary Magdalene

Matthew 28:6 - Mary Magdalene, along with another woman, went to visit the tomb of Jesus in the early morning on the day after the Sabbath. As they approached the tomb, there was an earthquake and an angel appeared before them and rolled away the boulder covering the entrance to show them that the tomb was empty. He then gave them the good news that Jesus had risen.

5. Whom did the angel save from the destruction of Sodom by saying, "Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city."?

Answer: Lot

Genesis 19:15 - When God decided to punish the citizens of Sodom and Gomorrah for their evil ways, Abraham pleaded with Him to save his nephew Lot and his family who were living there. God then sent three angels to rescue Lot along with his family. Unfortunately, Lot's wife didn't obey the angel's warning and was turned into a pillar of salt for turning to look back at the city while they left.

6. To whom did the angel Gabriel say, "Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women."?

Answer: Mary

Luke 1:28 - The angel Gabriel visited Mary, a young woman in the city of Nazareth, and told her that she would soon give birth to a son who would be the Saviour.

This greeting forms the basis of the 'Hail Mary', a Roman Catholic prayer.

7. "Arise up quickly. Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me." With these words, which apostle of Jesus did an angel help to escape from prison?

Answer: Peter

Acts 12:7,8 - King Herod sought to persecute the Christians in order to please the powerful. He had the apostle James beheaded and later arrested Peter during the Passover. Peter was sleeping, chained between two guards in the prison cell, when the angel appeared and led him out of the prison to freedom.

8. To which of the following Old Testament prophets did an angel say, "Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged."?

Answer: Isaiah

Isaiah 6:7 - When God called Isaiah to be a prophet, he thought he was unworthy to serve God since he was a sinner. The angel then touched his lips with burning coal to cleanse him of his sins so that he could preach the word of God to the people.

Answer: Zacharias

Luke 1:19,20 - Since Zacharias's wife Elizabeth had already passed her childbearing age, he was sceptical of the angel's message and asked for further proof. As punishment for his lack of faith, Zacharias was struck silent by the angel till the time the child was born. This child grew up to be John the Baptist.

10. To which group of people did a host of angels appear and say, "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."?

Answer: Shepherds

Luke 2:14 - After Mary gave birth to baby Jesus in the manger, a host of angels appeared to shepherds who were watching over their sheep in the nearby fields. The angels shared with them the good news that the Saviour was born so that they could go and worship Him.
