Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. First let's explore Jesus' mother, Mary. Mary was a virgin according to Christian tradition when she got pregnant with Jesus, but how many other children did she have according to some Christians?

Answer: No one knows for sure

The King James Bible lists the names of Jesus' brothers but it does not list his sisters. So we do not know for sure how many children Mary had. The brothers that are named are James, Joseph, Simon and Judas. (wikipedia.com)
2. Jesus' step-father was Joseph. What was Joseph's profession?

Answer: carpenter

You can find this information in Matthew 13:55. Christians believe that Joseph was not the biological father of Jesus, but that God is His biological Father.
3. Which of Jesus' brothers may have written a book of the Bible according to some Christians?

Answer: James

The King James Bible does not say for sure that it was James the half brother of Jesus, however some Bible scholars do believe that it may have been that James. The book of James is the book that discusses the problems our tongue can get us into if we're not careful with what we say.
4. Who was Jesus' second cousin who was beheaded?

Answer: John the Baptist

King Herod didn't plan to kill John the Baptist originally. Herodias' daughter Salome danced for him and asked to see the head of John the Baptist on a plate as a reward. This story can be found in Mark chapter 6.
5. Which relative of Jesus was struck dumb when he didn't believe his wife was pregnant?

Answer: Zacharias

Zacharias thought he and Elizabeth were too old to have children. This story can be found in Luke chapter 1.
6. Who was Mary's cousin who was pregnant with the man who many years later would baptize Jesus?

Answer: Elizabeth

Elizabeth was the mother of John the Baptist. She was Mary's cousin, making Jesus and John the Baptist second cousins. See Luke chapter 1 for more information.
7. Now some questions about Jesus, himself. Why did Jesus' family go to Egypt when Jesus was a young boy?

Answer: Herod sent word to kill all children age two and under.

This story can be found in Matthew 2. Herod was afraid of the coming Messiah having too much power and wanted to have him killed before he reached adulthood. His plan to do so was to kill all children under the age of two since he knew Jesus was no older than two.
8. Where did Jesus preach most of the Gospel?

Answer: Galilee

This story can be found in Mark chapter 1. Jesus had his ministry for three years where He taught his disciples how to live, about God, and about the Son of God, Himself.
9. How many times was Jesus tempted by the Devil in the desert?

Answer: Three times

The Devil first tempted Him to turn the stones into bread. The second time he tempted Him to worship the Devil. The third time he tempted Him to jump off the edge of the mountain and call the angels to save Him. Each time Jesus resisted temptation by quoting from the Old Testament. This story can be found in Luke 4.
10. The book of John has a different way of explaining about Jesus. Fill in the blank, according to the King James Version, in this verse from John 1:1 that describes Jesus. "In the beginning was the _______ and the _____ was with God, and the _______ was God."

Answer: Word

Many Christians believe this verse to mean that Jesus always existed before he came to Earth as a child. He always was with God.
