Bible Trivia

[MawMaw]

What is the longest word in the Bible? :)

[Rulkiewicz]

What is the longest word in the Bible? :)

Eternal.


:)

[MawMaw]

Eternal.


:)


Good answer!........but not the one I had in mind exactly. :p

[Rulkiewicz]

Good answer!........but not the one I had in mind exactly. :p

I tried. :)

[MawMaw]

I tried. :)


I actually just "happened" upon this little trivia question earlier today reading in the Bible. Came across the word....and saw a footnote that said....."longest word in the Bible". :)

[MawMaw]

ok, I guess it's too hard......lol

it's found in Isaiah chapter 8 ....... 18 letters long! :)

[angelindesguise]

must be Ma-her-shal-al-hash-baz?

[MawMaw]

You're on a "roll" sister!

That's the longest word in the Bible! :)

[Abigail4476]

Without looking it up!! ...who was Abraham's second wife?

[MawMaw]

Hagar?

[angelindesguise]

Abraham did not marry Hagar did he? she was Sarah's handmaiden, but after she delivered Ishmael, there was jealousy between Sarah and Hagar and she was sent away.

[MawMaw]

Yeah I guess so....that's the only other lady I could think of in his life LOL

[angelindesguise]

Sarah just couldn't wait on that promise, she had to take matters into her own hands. She persuaded Abraham to go in to her handmaiden and have a child with her. We don't need to help God out, we just need to keep the faith and wait on Him. When we take matters into our own hands, we always mess up.

[MawMaw]

Amen, that's the truth Angel!

So, who was Abraham's 2nd wife? (I may be forced to look Abi....but I won't tell) :p

[angelindesguise]

Was it Ke-tu-rah?

[MawMaw]

LOL, still lookin!

[John Atkinson]

Mahershalalhashbaz - son of Isaiah

[MawMaw]

Hey Sis Angel, I think mebbe I was right about Hagar.........Genesis 16:3.....And Sarai Abram's wife took Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his WIFE.

:):)

[MawMaw]

Mahershalalhashbaz - son of Isaiah

How bout that....He sure was! ;)

Now if I can just learn to pronounce it! :yeah:

[angelindesguise]

I don't know Maw Maw, I am confused in Genesis 25: 1, it says Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Ke-tu-rah

Prior to that in the last verse in chapter 24: 67 it says: And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah's tent, and took rebekah, and she became his wife: and he loved her: and isaac was comforted after his mothers death.

[Abigail4476]

Abraham's second wife was Keturah. (Gen. 25:1) He didn't marry Hagar. Abraham had (at least) 6 more sons...by Keturah.

Gen. 24:67 is...Isaac consummating his marriage to his new wife, Rebekah....

[MawMaw]

Ok, I guess I was wrong. :)

[angelindesguise]

Doesn't hurt to admit defeat does it Sis.? It's wrong when someone always has to be right and can not admit it. I know people like that, don't you?

[MawMaw]

[quote=angelindesguise;302772]Doesn't hurt to admit defeat does it Sis.? quote]


(no,not too bad) :realmad:............. :icon_laug


:jk:

[MawMaw]

Ok answer this.........

"And Delilah said to Samson, Tell me, I pray thee, wherein thy great strength lieth, and wherewith thou mightest be bound to afflict thee?".............

What was Samson's first answer to her about this?

[angelindesguise]

Ok answer this.........

"And Delilah said to Samson, Tell me, I pray thee, wherein thy great strength lieth, and wherewith thou mightest be bound to afflict thee?".............

What was Samson's first answer to her about this?


Judges 16:7
And Samson said unto her, If they bind me with seven green withs that were never dried, then shall I be weak, and be as another man.

[MawMaw]

Judges 16:7
And Samson said unto her, If they bind me with seven green withs that were never dried, then shall I be weak, and be as another man.


correct! :)

[angelindesguise]

Did He not get it? He should have known she would betray Him.

[MawMaw]

his love/lust was super blind..........ended up really blinding him huh :(

[angelindesguise]

So the old saying "Love is Blind" do you think this is where they got it from?

[MawMaw]

I wondered that too.

[angelindesguise]

So post another question Sis, of course I may not be blessed to know that answer, or know where to find it in the Bible, but someone else may.

[MawMaw]

ok....but anybody can post some bible trivia if they wanna....this is fun! :)

[MawMaw]

What were the name of the guys mentioned in the Bible..... that when they tried to cast demons outta someone....the devils spoke back to them....."Jesus we know and Paul we know.........but who are YOU?"....and they (demons) proceeded to beat the fire outta them.

Moral of the story.........ya better have the "goods" when you try to cast a booger outta someone! :)

[angelindesguise]

Acts 19: 14

And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a jew, and chief of the priests, which did so.

15: And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?

[MawMaw]

Acts 19: 14

And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a jew, and chief of the priests, which did so.

15: And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?

Right :)

[John Atkinson]

See if you can figure this one out: Not a single one of Delialah's tricks resulted in failure. Everyone was a success, even though a few philistines got killed. It's called acceptable losses. She won the very first minute she got him to even talk about it.

Devil has thousands of years worth of observing people...but he is a real old dog with no new tricks.

The way to beat the devil at his own game...? don't play.

[MawMaw]

What was the name of the first "church" that Jesus had to correct in Revelation?

And what was the reason he had to correct them?

[MawMaw]

just bumpin this back up :)

[Abigail4476]

What was the name of the first "church" that Jesus had to correct in Revelation?

And what was the reason he had to correct them?

Ephesus? I don't remember...I know there was Laodicea...that's the famous one, though...so it can't be that one! :D

[MawMaw]

Ephesus? I don't remember...I know there was Laodicea...that's the famous one, though...so it can't be that one! :D


Yes, it was Ephesus. :)

[Abigail4476]

Aw man, I should've REMEMBERED that AND the reason...my Dad has preached on that topic sooooo many times! I had to look it up to find the reason, so I won't post it....maybe someone else will get the answer without having to look! :D

[MawMaw]

I just went back and read about ALL those 7 churches that the Lord found fault with......it would do every body good to re read that!
:)

[angelindesguise]

I read it when you posted the question, but I need to go back and re-read it and take more time to study. I have such short term memory.

[MawMaw]

Moses' father in law Jethro was a priest of Midian :)

[MawMaw]

In the meantime, here's another trivia question...

The Apocrypha are those books and portions of books that appear in the Latin Vulgate, either as part of the OT or as an appendix.

Can you name one of those books?

[John Atkinson]

In the meantime, here's another trivia question...

The Apocrypha are those books and portions of books that appear in the Latin Vulgate, either as part of the OT or as an appendix.

Can you name one of those books?I & II Maccabees, Bel and the Dragon, Ecclesiasticus. I'll let someone else enjoy the rest.

[John Atkinson]

Did ya'll know there is a New Testament Apocrypha as well? :D

[MawMaw]

Did ya'll know there is a New Testament Apocrypha as well? :D

Question:

What was David's mother's name?

[MawMaw]

Question:

What was David's mother's name?

Wow! Hard one! :think:

She most certainly is not named in the KJV. I cheated and Googled lol, I won't reveal what her name is....but I highly doubt anyone can name her without googling too! :icon_help:

Awesome story about her and David on the page I read.

Now if someone asks "who was King David's mother" I'll know!! :banana:

[angelindesguise]

I also found the answer on Web Search. I searched my Bible, and was unable to locate it.

I like Maw Maw will not post my answer, although I had copied it getting ready to paste it, but will wait a while before doing so.

Question:

What is the only domesticated animal not mentioned in the Bible?

[angelindesguise]

Question:

What is the only domesticated animal not mentioned in the Bible?


Is the answer Cat??

[MawMaw]

Is the answer Cat??

Yes ma'am, that is the correct answer. :)

[angelindesguise]

Yes ma'am, that is the correct answer. :)

That was a guess, but I couldn't remember ever seeing where a cat was mentioned. As I have posted on several occasions, our Pastor encourages us to read our Bible through every year. I have done so several times, but each time I do, something new is revealed to me, and things I have never noticed before, sometimes seem to leap out at me. So just because I had not remembered seeing a cat mentioned, didn't mean it hadn't been. It was just a good guess Maw Maw.

Next Question............

You can ask some too ya know! lol :D

[MawMaw]

Question:

What word appears exactly 773,692 times in the King James Bible?

[angelindesguise]

I don't have a clue and I will wait a while to post my guess. Maybe someone else will give the correct answer. Then if not, I will post the answer I have in mind.

[angelindesguise]

This is just a guess, I really don't have a clue, but is it Thou, or Thou Shall


Who was the women in the Bible who called her husband Lord? ( this came to me when I read the Thread concerning Jesus Name. This title was not the name of the person in Question, but he was actually called this by his wife.

[MawMaw]

This is just a guess, I really don't have a clue, but is it Thou, or Thou Shall



No, sis, Thou or Thou Shall was not the word.

The answer will be just one word.

[angelindesguise]

Well I was not lucky with that guess Maw Maw, but I have no doubt that you don't know the answer to my question. Specially since you read and study the Bible. So please just post it when you read, cause no one else seems to be too interested in playing games most of the time.

[MawMaw]

Who was the women in the Bible who called her husband Lord? ( this came to me when I read the Thread concerning Jesus Name. This title was not the name of the person in Question, but he was actually called this by his wife.

That's gonna cause me to search my Bible! Which is what this thread, to me, is all about..........getting folks to get in their Bibles. :nod

[HSdad]

How many days was Noah in the ark?

(regretablely, depending on your eschatology, I will have to consider two possible correct answers...)

[MawMaw]

How many days was Noah in the ark?

(regretablely, depending on your eschatology, I will have to consider two possible correct answers...)

That's gonna take some cipherin and ponderin for me! lol :goof:

I know it's quite a few more day's than 40. :nod

[angelindesguise]

I read that they were in the Ark 7 days before the rain, then it rained 40 days and nights, then Noah continued to send the Dove, and the raven out to search for dry ground, so how many days did it take for the water to recede off the face of the earth. I think it was a bunch.............

[Melody]

It was almost a full year.

Gen 7:11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

Gen 8:13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first [month], the first [day] of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.

[MawMaw]

It was almost a full year.

Gen 7:11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

Gen 8:13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first [month], the first [day] of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.

That's about the same conclusion I came up with too.

Our year now and their year then differs alot, so I have no clue how many exact days they were on that Ark. :think:

[Falla39]

What did Jesus tell his disciples that the words he spoke to
them were?

Falla39

[MawMaw]

Spirit and Life! :)

Now to look up the exact scripture :)

[angelindesguise]

Spirit and Life! :)

Now to look up the exact scripture :)



"The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life."

Is this the scripture?

[MawMaw]

"The words that I speak unto you, they are spirit and they are life."

Is this the scripture?



Yes'm.....found it.....:)

John 6:63:

It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

[angelindesguise]

Thank's for posting the Scripture, I didn't know where it was, but was going to look it up. I left out some of the verse too, didn't I?

[MawMaw]

You're welcome :)

[MawMaw]

Waitin on HSdad to give us the answer now to how many days Noah was on the Ark. :)

[dabody7]

It was 370 days.

[HSdad]

Waitin on HSdad to give us the answer now to how many days Noah was on the Ark. :)
Marking time by Noah’s life:
Start:
600th year
2nd month
17th day
…the same day the windows of heaven opened
And
… In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;

Finish:
God’s command to exit
v. 13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.
v. 14 And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried.
v.15 And God spake unto Noah, saying,
v.16 Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.

To do the math, you would have to subscribe to the God calendar as being 12 months (lunar new moons) of 30 days for a total of 360 days per year (this why Adar I and Adar II come into play to reconcile the earth’s revolution around the sun being 365.249975 days)

So on the selfsame day of Yr 600, month 2, day 17 enter
And God commands on Yr 600, month 2, day 27 to exit,
You would have 360 + 10 days for a total that agrees with Dabody’s post of 370.

FYI,
Interesting internal time references:
The selfsame day that the heavens opened Noah and family entered the ark (not seven days prior)
Rain falling for 40 days and nights
Earth covered with water subsiding for 150 days
Ark rested on Arrat on the 7th month, and 17th day of the month
This matches the five months equals 5x30 = 150 days
Noah releases the Raven and the Dove
Dove finds no place to rest, and returns (no mention that the Raven returns)
Seven days later, Dove released again and returned with an olive branch
Seven day later Dove release again and DID NOT return

So,
On ark with rain or floating on water that prevailed over all the earth =150 days
In ark with water abating, another 220 days UNTIL God commanded an exit.

How was Noah sure it would rain?. God had told him in Genesis 7:4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights… So Noah and his family went into the ark seven days before the flood when he was 600 years old. God brought in the animals and the Lord shut him in. (verse 16)

[MawMaw]

All in all, Noah and his family was on that Ark a lonnnnng time! :)

Interesting stuff! :)

[angelindesguise]

I don't know either, but I had just read a few days prior what someone else interperted concerning the seven days prior. Those were not my words, but I Googled for them. A Bible Scholar I am not.

God brought in the animals and the Lord shut him in. (verse 16)

I do not think any credential or insight is needed to intreprete the words that are recorded as "on the selfsame day" recorded in Gen 7:13 related to v. 12.

The words of our Lord recorded in Luke 17:27 say the same thing. For those brethren who teach Noah and family hung out for seven days on the ark (to support their timeline teaching for a calling away), they might say Luke 17:27 is not definitive enough (despite the Gen 7:13 second witness), but in Luke's record, Jesus goes on to compare another judgement that came on the SAME day as Lot left (Lk 17:29).

Folks who want a seven year period without God's church being present need to toss out Noah (and Lot) if they are looking for parrallel cites or type/shadow for their teaching.

Btw, I think if you re-read the witness in Gen 7, you may find that God instructed Noah seven days ahead of time to begin the process of loading the riders onto the ark.

[angelindesguise]

I'm not trying to condradict you or what you posted HSdad, I just posted what I had found while doing a web search. Evidently whoever posted that on the web, believed it to be so.

I don't have anything more to say on the matter though. Backing away very slowly. LOL

I was reading in the Book of Daniel today and came across a good trivia question :) ............

In the book of Daniel (http://everything2.com/index.pl?node=Daniel) in the Old Testament (http://everything2.com/index.pl?node=Old%20Testament), we are told of three youth (http://everything2.com/index.pl?node=youth) taken by Nebuchadnezzar II (http://everything2.com/index.pl?node=Nebuchadnezzar%20II) after his first seige of Jerusalem (http://everything2.com/index.pl?node=Jerusalem). They are commonly known by the names given to them by their Babylonian captors: Shadrach (http://everything2.com/index.pl?node=Shadrach), Meshach (http://everything2.com/index.pl?node=Meshach), and Abednego (http://everything2.com/index.pl?node=Abednego). Their Hebrew (http://everything2.com/index.pl?node=Hebrew) names were respectively what?

Now among these were of the children of judah, daniel, hananiah, Mischael, and Azariah:

Unto whom the prince of the eunuchs gave names: for he gave unto daiel the name of Belteshazer, and to Hananiah, of Shadrach; and to Mishael, of Meshach; and to Azariah, of Abednego.
