Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Which of the sons of Shem appears in the genealogy of Jesus Christ?

Answer: Arphaxad

Shem originally had 5 sons namely Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud and Aram (Gen. 10:22 KJV). As you can see in Genesis chapter 11, the line continues to Arphaxad reaching down all the way to Abraham (Gen. 11:11-27 KJV), and which we know, is an ancestor of Christ.

2. She was a woman prophesied by Deborah to kill the enemy's general. She fulfilled the prophecy, by killing Sisera, the enemy commander. Who is she?

Answer: Jael

According to the Book of Judges, Deborah was the present judge, (Judg. 4:4 KJV) and the enemy was Canaan led by Sisera, the captain (Judg. 4:2 KJV). And after the fight, Israel yet again won, but Sisera wasn't yet dead. And since he was exhausted, he went into the tent of Jael and asked help. So when he was asleep, Jael took the nail of her tent, and smote it in the temples of Sisera's head, so he died (Judg.4:21 KJV).

3. According to 2nd Samuel, David had lots of wives and children, one of them being Bathsheba and Solomon. But Solomon also has FULL brothers. Who were they?

Answer: Nathan, Shobab, Shammua

According to 2nd Samuel 5:14 KJV, Solomon and his brothers were born in Jerusalem along with 7 more children from his concubines. Solomon is known for being the wisest king and the king who built the temple. And Nathan is always known for being the person in the genealogy of Jesus in the Gospel of Luke.

4. How many wives did Abraham have?

Answer: 2

According to Genesis, Abraham had 2 wives, Sarah and Keturah. If you question, "What about Hagar", it is simple to see the answer. Hagar was just a handmaid to Sarah before having a child with Abraham. Hagar is now considered to be just a concubine to Abraham since there were no record of them being married.

5. If Ruth and Boaz re the Great-Grandparents of David, who are the Great-Great-Grandparents of David?

Answer: Salmon and Rahab

Salmon and Rahab were the parents of Boaz as it is written in Matthew 1:5 KJV "And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse;" meaning that Boaz was the son of Rahab and Salmon making them Great-Great-Grandparents of David.

6. How many wives did David have that were named in the Bible?

Answer: 8

David had 8 wives in total, excluding the concubines (2 Sam.3:2-5, 6:20-23,12-24 KJV).

7. After the river of Eden split, what were the names of the four rivers?

Answer: Pison, Gihon, Hiddikel, Euphrates

After the split of the river, four rivers sprung out. The first river is named Pison. The second is Gihon. The third is Hiddikel, also known as Tigris, and the fourth Euphrates (Gen.2:11-14 KJV).

8. Who are the wives of Lamech from Cain's generation?

Answer: Adah and Zilliah

In Gen.4:19, Lamech from Cain's generation had two wives with whom he had four children, three sons and one daughter (Gen. 4:19-22 KJV).

9. Who is the ancestor of all Canaanites?

Answer: Ham

After the flood, Noah's sons repopulated the Earth. One of his children, Ham, had a son named Canaan who in turn was the father of the Canaanite tribes as being said in Gen. 9:18 KJV.

Answer: Ish-Bosheth/Esh-Baal

Esh-Baal was the son of King Saul. King Saul's nephew Abner declared Eshbaal king. But not everybody was happy. The Tribe of Judah proclaimed David as king, but both tribes were not happy. So Esh-Baal and David's rivalry begins. It all ended when Esh-Baal surrendered to David, making David the king.
