Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Genesis 46:20 states Asenath, the daughter of Poti-Pherah priest of On, bore two sons -- Manasseh and Ephraim. What was the name of Asenath's husband?

Answer: Joseph

Asenath was the daughter of Poti-Phera, priest of On, and the wife of Joseph. According to Genesis 41:45, Asenath was given as a wife to Joseph by the Pharaoh. As stated in the question, Joseph and Asenath were the parents of two boys, Manasseh and Ephraim.
2. The following verse from the NKJV contains the word 'bore' and quotes God communicating with Moses: "You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings and brought you to Myself." In what book do you find this verse?

Answer: Exodus

The verse is from Exodus 19:4 in the Old Testament. It's part of a passage telling of Moses meeting with God on Mount Sinai. During the meeting, Moses received two stone tablets etched with the Ten Commandments. For details about the Ten Commandments, see Exodus 20:1-17.
3. 1 Kings 10:2 in the NKJV tells of the arrival in Jerusalem of a caravan of camels "that bore spices, very much gold, and precious stones." Who was the owner of the caravan of camels that bore so many items?

Answer: Queen of Sheba

The Queen of Sheba is the correct answer. According to 1 Kings 10:2 in the NKJV, she travelled to Jerusalem with a caravan of camels "that bore spices, very much gold, and precious stones" which were gifts for Solomon. The verse also states she spoke with Solomon "about all that was in her heart".

Scripture states the Queen of Sheba was a major fan of Solomon and insisted on travelling to Jerusalem to meet the Israelite king and present him with an array of precious gifts.
4. Old Testament Scripture tells of a prophet taking Gomer, the daughter of Diblaim, as his wife "and she conceived and bore him a son." What was the name of the prophet who married Gomer?

Answer: Hosea

Hosea is the correct answer. According to Hosea 1:1-8 in the NKJV, Hosea received divine instructions to marry a woman who was a whore "for the land has committed great harlotry by departing from the LORD."

The passage states Hosea and Gomer were the parents of two boys, Jezreel and Lo-Ammi, and one girl, Lo-Ruhamah.
5. The following verse, containing the word 'bore', is from the NKJV: "A foolish son is a grief to his father, and bitterness to her who bore him." In what book do you find this verse?

Answer: Proverbs

The verse is from Proverbs 17:25. Chapter 17 of Proverbs contains the subhead 'The Lord Tests Hearts' using the NKJV. The vast majority of the content in Proverbs was written by Solomon, an Israelite king noted for his immense wisdom. Lemuel and Agar are also credited with writing some of the content of Proverbs.
6. The following verse, containing the word 'bore', is from Matthew 8:17 with the name of the prophet removed: "...that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by ______ the prophet, saying: 'He Himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses.'" What is the missing name of the prophet?

Answer: Isaiah

The missing name of the prophet in Matthew 8:17 is Isaiah. To put the verse in context, here's how the Gospel of Matthew 8:15-17 reads in the NKJV: "When evening had come, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed. And He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying: 'He Himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses.'"

Matthew, the writer of the Gospel of Matthew, was a tax collector who became a member of the original Twelve Disciples. In his Gospel, Matthew often makes reference to Old Testament Scripture to show Jesus is the fulfilment of Bible prophecy.
7. Luke 11:27 in the NKJV tells of a woman proclaiming to Jesus: "Blessed is the womb that bore You, and the breasts which nursed You!" What was the woman's name?

Answer: No name is given

No name is given for the woman in Luke 11:27 who proclaimed to Jesus, "Blessed is the womb that bore You, and the breasts which nursed You!" The verse in the NKJV simply states "a certain woman from the crowd raised her voice" and made the statement to Him. The KJV also makes reference to "a certain woman" while the NIV simply states "a woman in the crowd called out".

After the unnamed woman made the statement, Jesus responded in Verse 28 by saying, "More than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it!"
8. According to John 12:17, Jesus successfully called a dead man out of his tomb and the people "bore witness" of the miracle. What was the name of the dead man who was successfully called out of his tomb?

Answer: Lazarus

Lazarus, the brother of Mary and Martha, is the correct answer. Details about Lazarus being raised from the dead can be found in John 11:1-44. However, John 12:9-17 states the people "bore witness" about Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead and the news apparently spread like wildfire with the Pharisees plotting to not only kill Jesus, but Lazarus as well.
9. A member of the original Twelve Disciples wrote this verse that is found in the NKJV: "...who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness -- by whose stripes you were healed." What is the disciple's name?

Answer: Peter

The verse in question is from 1 Peter 2:24 and is part of one of two books written by Peter, one of the original Twelve Disciples. (The second book written by Peter is 2 Peter.)

In Verse 25, Peter goes on to state in the NKJV: "For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls."

Using Bible versions such as the KJV, NKJV and the NIV, 1 Peter consists of five chapters.
10. The following verse, containing the word 'bore', is from the NKJV: "In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations." In what book do you find this verse?

Answer: Revelation

At first blush, the verse sounds a bit like something you would read in Genesis. However, the verse is actually from Revelation 22:2. The verse is part of a passage telling of the River of Life.

To put the verse in context, here's how Revelation 22:1-3 reads in the NKJV: "And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him."

Revelation is the last book of the Christian Bible and Chapter 22 is the final chapter in the book.
