ReplyDeleteI think I'm sure on about 8, and almost sure on another 3, and guessing on the rest. Which is not as good a score as it might sound considering 1 & 2 Chronicles were in my Bible reading plan last month! All those names....
ReplyDeleteI could answer most of them, but I was unsure about question 13. Surely apart from Jesus, Josiah was the best king? He wasn't in the options. I could make a guess out of those options, but really Josiah is better than those options.
ReplyDeleteThe rest I can answer. (thanks to my mum who read the OT to me and my siblings every Sunday night while Dad was at church as we were growing up)
Ruth - yes, you are right. We could only look at 8 kings. To get the balance right(ish) between good, kind of okay and bad we couldn't have both Josiah and Hezekiah. I picked Hezekiah. Glad you could answer them!
ReplyDeleteI just tested my kids - and they got all of them, except the first one.
ReplyDelete....although the younger kids called out the answers after the older ones had already answered...
ReplyDeleteJust wondering if you're going to have a follow-up post with the answers or at least tell people who stumble across your blog where to look for them.
ReplyDeletePost your answers and I'll mark them.
ReplyDeletePretty sure I got the lot. I loved those stories as a teenager and read them lots. So much drama! Hezekiah/Josiah would be a hard choice for best but Hezekiah's reign definitely more interesting. It's like the author was there.
ReplyDeleteI won't post my answers, because I'm embaressed by my ignorance. But you have inspired me to read up on my Kings, so I'll know better in future.
ReplyDeletePs- is it bad that I'd like to wear a tshirt that said 'I will scourge you with scorpions'?

ReplyDeleteDon't think I didn't notice that no one posted their answers. After a cheating incident in RE on Tuesday, I'm suspicious of everyone!
Ben - 1&2 Kings rock. Do read them! When I read it, I jot down the names of the kings, where they are king of (Judah/Israel) and give them a tick or a cross. I think you should make yourself a scorpion tshirt.
