Welcome to the Bible Trivia Quiz quiz. These questions come straight from Scripture. The answers can all be found in the Bible, but don't peek before you test your knowledge. The following 20 "trivia" questions are not trivial. These particular questions have been chosen because their answers help us understand the overall story - or metanarrative - of Scripture. Solid biblical literacy is vital to help us recognize lies from the world.

1.

2. 
What event that impacted all humanity is recorded in Genesis chapter 3?

    Question 5 about the Passover. Every sermon I have heard preached about the Passover it is paired with them leaving Egypt. So I have never heard it being attributed to the 10th plague itself. Just that the blood over the door posts is what allowed them to leave slavery in Egypt. So now I see how the correct answer is the correct one.

      Thanks for taking the quiz Teresa! It is true that the Passover was established just as God was about to bring them out of Egypt. But as you saw in Exodus 12, it was established specifically to remember God’s protection when on Israel when He struck the firstborn of Egypt.

    Interesting challenge to how much I’ve learned over the years. (I did miss three.)

    Two observations: #6 begins with word “where”; should it be “what”? Also, my test results state I “scored in the top percent”; should there be a number before the word “top”?

    Thanks for inviting me to try this out.

      Yes, I just fixed #6. Thanks for the input! And there isn’t a percentage but you should have gotten a count for the number right you got! I’d love to do a percentage but haven’t figured out to do that yet!

    Thank you Kathy. The ones I got wrong are exactly the ones that I was going back and forth with the correct answer. I felt the questions weren’t too hard but not too easy also.

    I missed six. I grew up in church and lately have felt so overwhelmed with studying and learning again, as I felt like I have to start over. This quiz reminded me while I have a lot to learn, there is also a lot I already know. It has helped me feel less overwhelmed about where to begin.

    Well, I was hoping for a 100 but I missed one. I really could not remember about the metaphor of Jesus and the big fish. Lol

    I was shocked that I only missed 1! I enjoy taking quizzes like this one. It was fun and reminds me that I am retaining what I have read; been having some memory issues. I have read the Bible completely every year since 2020. It feels weird if I don’t start my morning with scripture & coffee! 😁

    I missed three. 5,6 and 18. #6 I should have known by the wording “ God dwelling with Israel”. He wanted to be with them wherever they went. #5 was a stumper but now that I think about it, it’s the blood of Jesus that saves us and allows us to pass from slavery into new life. And # 18 definitely had me fooled. It’s not about confessing Jesus as Lord. It’s living the Christian life through the power of the Holy Spirit. Thanks Kathy. I enjoyed taking the quiz
