Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Do we know who wrote the epistle to the Hebrews?

Answer: No

There's nothing in the book that shows for sure who the author was. It was probably written either late 63 or early 64 AD. Some believe that it was Paul because it says in the final greetings that those from Italy sent their greetings. Paul was in Rome during the time frame that the book was probably written in so, him being in Italy, it is possible that he wrote it and the other believers with him sent their greetings.

Others believe it wasn't Paul because of its many differences from Paul's epistles. But nobody knows for sure, so, no, we don't know who wrote it.
2. According to Hebrews 1 of the NIV Bible, which is higher ranking, Jesus or the Angels?

Answer: Jesus

"For to which of the angels did God ever say,
'You are my Son; today I have become your Father'?
Or again, 'I will be his Father, and he will be my Son?'
And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says,
'Let all God's angels worship him.'"-Hebrews 1:5-6.

We see in these verses and additional references in Hebrews 1 that Jesus is higher than the angels. However, it does say in Hebrews 2 that Jesus was made lower than the angels for a little while so that he could taste death for everyone.
3. According to Hebrews 2:9 of the NIV Bible, what is Jesus now crowned with because he suffered death?

Answer: Glory and honor

"But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone."-Hebrews 2:9.

Christians believe that about 2000 years ago Jesus came to earth. He lived a perfect life and at the age of 33 he died on a cross. Three days later he rose from the grave, conquering death forever. According to Christian belief he's still alive in Heaven and is crowned with glory and honor.
4. According to Hebrews 2:11 of the NIV Bible, Jesus is not ashamed to call those who have been made holy ___?

Answer: His brothers

"Both the one who makes men holy and those who are made holy are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers." - Hebrews 2:11

Another verse that supports Christ's followers as his brothers is Romans 8:17. Romans 8:17 says that if we share in Christ's sufferings then we are children of God and therefore his heirs and co-heirs with Christ.

So the summary of the verses according to Christian belief:
If we share in Christ's sufferings then we are made holy and Jesus will not be ashamed to call us brothers.
5. According to Hebrews 3:12 of the NIV Bible, what turns away from the living God?

Answer: A sinful, unbelieving heart

The verse tells us to not have a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from God. Verse 13 says that we should instead encourage each other daily so that sin doesn't deceit us.
6. According to Hebrews 9:22 of the NIV Bible, there is no forgiveness without what?

Answer: The shedding of blood

In Leviticus God told Moses how everything was going to be. He gave Moses the law and told him what to do for every sin that might be committed. If someone wronged someone else they had to make a sacrifice before they could be forgiven. Before the Israelites left Egypt they had to sacrifice a lamb and coat their door frames with its blood.

For the forgiveness of sins today, Christians believe that if you confess your sins to God he will forgive you. The blood was shed when Jesus died on the cross for us all about 2,000 years ago. That's what Christians are all about right there!
7. According to Hebrews 11:29 of the NIV Bible, why were the Israelites allowed to pass through the Red Sea on dry ground but when the Egyptians tried to they drowned?

Answer: They had faith

The story talked about in the verse can be found in Exodus 13:17-14:31. Let me back up a little bit and tell you of the events leading up to it. The Israelites had been enslaved in Egypt for 430 years. Then God sent Moses to tell Pharaoh to set the Israelites free. It wasn't until after the Egyptians had suffered through the Ten Plagues that he finally let them go.

God then led them into the desert toward the Red Sea. However, Pharaoh changed his mind and set out with all of the chariots in Egypt to stop them. He pursued them to the Red Sea and that's where God performed a miracle. The Israelites came to the Red Sea then they looked back and saw the Egyptians and were afraid. God told Moses to raise his staff and stretch his arm over the sea. Moses did this and God parted the waters of the sea and the Israelites crossed over on dry ground. When they had all crossed over the sea God told Moses to stretch his hand over the sea again. God then let the water flow back on the ground and the sea drowned the Egyptians. After this the Israelites praised God for giving them victory.
8. According to Hebrews 12, is discipline a bad thing?

Answer: No

Hebrews 12:5-6 refers to a verse in Proverbs that says that God disciplines those he loves and punishes everyone he accepts as sons. Discipline helps keep people in order. It makes them think twice before doing something wrong again. "For what son is not disciplined be his father?" - Hebrews 12:7. Verse 8 says that if you're not disciplined then you're not a legitimate child.

It goes on to say that we all had fathers that disciplined us and we respect them for it. Verse 11 says "No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.".
9. Fill in the gap according to Hebrews 11:24-25 of the NIV Bible. "By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh's daughter. He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the pleasures of ___."

Answer: Sin for a short time

He could have just stayed in Egypt and maybe even have gotten the throne. But instead he did what God wanted and led the Israelites out of Egypt towards the promised land before he died and Joshua took over for him. Moses' story can be found in Exodus-Joshua.
10. Is anyone mentioned by name in the final greetings?

Answer: Yes

In the final greetings the author says that Timothy had been released, although it doesn't specifically from prison, and if he shows up then the author would visit him. Other than this no one is mentioned by name.
