Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In John 14:6 Jesus says, I am the ----, the Truth and the Life. " What word goes in the blank according to the King James Version?

Answer: Way

Jesus says this in response to Thomas' question in verse 5 "how can we know the way?" This is one of the many "I Am " statements Jesus made in the book of John.

2. Why did Adam call the female "Woman" according to Genesis 2:23 of the KIng James Version?

Answer: She was taken out of Man.

The woman is named Eve in Genesis 3:20 because "she was the mother of all living" As a child I thought it was because she was created at night. Eve would have many children including Cain, Abel and Seth.

3. What animal ate Herod, as stated in Acts 12:23 in the King James Version?

Answer: Worm

This was after Peter got out of jail supernaturally after the other believers prayed for him. The angel of the Lord struck Herod, then the worms ate him and then he died. So essentially he was eaten alive.

4. King Ahasuerus in the King James Version of Esther is known as Xerxes in other versions such as the New International Version.

Answer: True

Ahasuerus is the Persian version of the Hebrew name Xerxes. The book of Esther takes place in Persia but she was Jewish. The Jews were taken captive by Persia in 539 BC. King Xerxes was the king of Persia 485 BC- 465 BC.

5. When were possessions supposed to be returned to the original owners?

Answer: Year of Jubilee

The year of Jubilee is discussed in Leviticus 25. According to verse 11 the Year of Jubilee was celebrated every 50th year.

6. Revelation 3:19 of the King James Version says we should "be ---- and repent." What is the missing word?

Answer: Zealous

To be zealous means to have great fervor or eagerness. God wants us to have this kind of relationship with Him.

7. Who was the father of James and John in the Gospels, according to the King James Version?

Answer: Zebedee

Zebedee means "gift from God". In Mark 3:17 Jesus referred to Zebedee's sons as "sons of thunder".

8. What are the names of two minor prophets in the Old Testament?

Answer: Zephaniah and Zechariah

Zephaniah means "Yahweh hides" and Zechariah means "the Lord has remembered". Minor prophets were not so named because they are less important than the major prophets. They are called minor prophets as their books are so much shorter than the major prophets. The minor prophets are: Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi.

9. Is the name Zeus found anywhere in the King James Bible?

Answer: No

Zeus was the Greek king of the gods. While other gods are mentioned from other groups such as Baal, the Greek gods are not mentioned, although their Roman counterparts are - Jupiter, for example, where other translations refer to Zeus. Alexander the Great conquered Persia in 334 BC which was during the silent period. That is the period between the Old and New Testament.

10. Who was made mute when he doubted what an angel told him in Luke 1 of the King James Version?

Answer: Zacharias

Zacharias means "the Lord has remembered". Zacharias and Elisabeth were the parents of John the Baptist. Because they were so old, when the angel told Zacharias his wife would have a child he doubted the angel. As a result he was not able to talk until the baby was born and he named him John.
