Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Out of the four names below, which man played the harp as a teenager for a distressed King Saul? (1 Samuel 16:23)

Answer: David

In addition to being a ferocious warrior, David was a talented musician, especially when it came to the harp. According to 1 Samuel 16:23, King Saul had a distressing spirit depart from him whenever David played the harp.

1 Samuel 16:23, in the NKJV, explains things this way: "And so it was, whenever the spirit from God was upon Saul, that David would take a harp and play it with his hand. Then Saul would become refreshed and well, and the distressing spirit would depart from him."

No age is given for David when he played the harp for Saul, but it is commonly believed he was in his early teens as David's performances took place before he slayed the Philistine giant Goliath.
2. According to Ezra 1:2, what king of Persia gave permission to the Israelites to return to Jerusalem?

Answer: Cyrus

Cyrus, king of Persia, gave permission to the Israelites to return to Jerusalem after they had been in captivity for a number of years. Scripture states Cyrus made the historic decision after his heart had been moved by the LORD.

His empire stretched from the Mediterranean sea in the west to the Indus River in the east, according to Wikipedia. At the time, the empire ruled by Cyrus was the largest in the history of the world.
3. According to Judges 4:6, who was the commander of the Israelite military when Deborah was judge?

Answer: Barak

During the time Deborah ruled over Israel as judge, Barak served as leader of the military. It was under their leadership that the Israelites scored a spectacular military victory over the Canaanites. See the fourth chapter of Judges for details about the exploits of Barak and Deborah.
4. According to 1 Kings 1:3, what was the name of the beautiful young woman who took care of David when he was elderly and bedridden?

Answer: Abishag

Abishag, described as being "young" and "beautiful", was selected to care for David when he was elderly and frail. According to 1 Kings 1:1, David was "very old" and he "could not keep warm even when they put covers over him."

To keep David warm, Abishag would lie beside David, as per 1 Kings 1:2. However, David and Abishag did not have sexual relations, according to the fourth verse of the chapter.
5. Azariah was given a new name by the chief of the eunuchs of King Nebuchadnezzar. According to Daniel 1:7 in the NKJV, what was his new name? (The NIV has a slightly different spelling.)

Answer: Abed-Nego

Abed-Nego is the correct answer. Azariah was given the new name by the chief of the eunuchs of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon. (In the NIV, his name appears as Abednego.)

Scripture goes on to tell of Azariah, along with two other Jewish men named Mishael and Hananiah, being thrown into a fiery furnace after they refused to bow to an image of Nebuchadnezzar.

Miraculously, the three men were not harmed by the flames of the furnace.
6. According to Numbers 22:21-29, what was the name of the man who amazingly heard a donkey speak to him?

Answer: Balaam

Numbers 22:21-29 states that Balaam was addressed by a donkey, which no doubt made him think his ears were playing tricks on him. Seconds later, Balaam was likely thinking his eyes were playing tricks on him when he saw an angel of the LORD standing in the road before him with His sword drawn.
7. Where did Barnabas, a well-liked worker in the early church, come from, according to Acts 4:36?

Answer: Cyprus

Barnabas came from Cyprus, an island in the Mediterranean Sea, but no details are given as to the name of the town. He was originally known as Joses in the NKJV, but others in the early church called him Barnabas as he was always encouraging others. (In the NIV, his original name was Jospeh, rather than Joses.)

See Acts 4:36-37 for details.
8. According to Acts 9:35-43, Tabitha was miraculously raised from the dead by Peter. What other name was Tabitha known by?

Answer: Dorcas

Tabitha, who was raised from the dead by Peter at Joppa, was also known as Dorcas. This is the first account in the New Testament of someone other than Jesus raising a person from the dead. Scripture goes on to tell of Paul raising Eutychus from the dead at Troas, as per Acts 20:7-12.

For details about Peter, one of the original Twelve Disciples, raising Tabitha/Dorcas from the dead, see Acts 9:35-43.
9. Paul is credited with writing the New Testament book in which the thirteenth chapter is known as the Love Chapter. What city were the believers based who received the book that contains the Love Chapter?

Answer: Corinth

The Love Chapter is found in Chapter 13 of 1 Corinthians and the book was addressed to believers in Corinth, a city in Greece. The Love Chapter is popular with Christians around the world and is often read at weddings.

A fact that is often overlooked by Love Chapter readers, myself included: when it comes to love, Paul is stating Christians should exhibit this type of love to everyone, not just members of their family or close friends. In other words, deep love is to be shown to your enemies as well as your best friends.
10. A helpless blind beggar had his sight miraculously restored by Jesus when He visited Jericho. According to Mark 10:46, what was the blind beggar's name?

Answer: Bartimaeus

Bartimaeus is the correct answer. Little in the way of details are given about Bartimaeus, apart from the fact he was a blind beggar who was the son of Timaeus. For details about Jesus restoring his sight, see Mark 10:46-52.
