I got all of them except the serpent, and on #13 I was thinking they had to be "clean," but I guess that was included in the type of animal.

ozjane said...

forgot the serpent........3 years of Bible College too long in the past.
Good one

A Stone Gatherer said...

I got #13 wrong. I said they needed to be sacrificed, which is probably redundent. I thought I got #4 wrong, but I was wrong, I got it right! That was fun!

Jaime Kubik said...

I got #14 wrong...just when you think you're doing good, BAM! The last one gets ya! I did love taking this little trivia quiz. I know I wonder sometimes how much I retain from my Bible reading and studies. Good to know something has stuck in the cobwebs of my brain! I hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas. And, just so you know, we got our car and our toilet fixed BEFORE Christmas and all our Christmas travels! Thank you for your comments! God bless you!

Faith said...

I forgot about the serpent!! duh!! and I said the same as Barbara, "Clean" for #13...that was tricky! and I didn't know the last one but my hubby would have if he was home right now! good questions...I'll ask my family when they return!

Amydeanne said...

I know most of them! :)
Merry Christmas!

April said...

We actually did pretty well! Thanks for the fun trivia questions.

Zhey Chua said...

I got a lot of wrong answers! Man! Lol. On #13 my answer was "unblemished" so I guess that would count? :)

I hope you had a blessed Christmas! (((HUGS)))

MiPa said...

The serpent caught me out as well. LOL. Great questions. I'll have to ask the girls later. Happy New Year my friend!

Lilibeth said...

Great exercise. I got them all, but not the references...ha ha. Of course, I teach Bible five hours a day to high school kids, so I would have been embarrassed not to.

Irishcoda said...

I enjoyed the quiz but didn't do so great! Happy New Year!

Grandma said...

Children learn best when they're having fun. Adults do too, I guess. That's a very creative learning idea.

Creative 13!
Happy New Year to you :)
