Leave a comment below if you have some questions you would like to add. Your help is greatly appreciated by other readers too. We’d love to update this list and make it even more amazing. We ran out of steam once we got to the later chapters of Acts. So there are many more simple bible questions you could add.
Wow, this is wonderful — thank you so much!
Wow! this is very good. The children feel sometimes then they know everything about the Bible’s History and feel a little boring.
The Bible Trivia is going to make the kids to learn more and have more fun time , they will feel more busy. Thank you very much!
That’s a great point. Giving a little challenge to the “over-churched” kids can make things fun. We tried include a good mix of easy versus hard questions. When we play, I always offer the children a “lifeline” choice if the question stumps the whole class. For example, I would give them multiple choice, making up two false answers to accompany the correct. Depending how you score the quiz game that could be worth less points or something.
Anyway, thanks for the encouraging comment and have fun!
This is wonderful. but the shortest verse in the bible is john 11 : 35 Not 36 as you have put it.
Thank you so much for the correction – fixing it now : )
These awesome resource, may God bless you!
F.Y.I. I was just reading through some of your questions. One of your questions is “How many brothers did Joseph have?” Your answer is “12” That is incorrect. Jacob had twelve sons, one of whom was Joseph, therefore, Joseph had “11” brothers + plus sister that we know of.
Thanks for catching the typo – updating now.
Good work – I’d offer the following suggestions / clarifications.
Q: Which book did Jesus directly write?
A: None
Comment: trick question. How about โDid Jesus directly write a bible book?โ Or true or false. Or fill in the blank. โWhen He walked the earth, Jesus directly wrote ______ book(s) of the Bible?
Q: Which NT book has Jesusโ entire โSermon on the Mount?โ
A: Matthew (Luke contains portions of that sermon, which is not so named in the Bible.)
Q: Which human author wrote the most books?
A: Paul wrote at least13 books (if Paul also wrote Hebrews)
Basic Bible Questions about Genesis
Q: What was Godโs sign to Noah that he would never destroy the earth again? A: A rainbow
God will some day destroy the earth again (purge all that is offensive, in a โBig Bangโ (2 Peter 3:1-10)). Following the worldwide flood, when Noah built an altar and offered sacrifices, Genesis 8:21 says The Lord smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: โNever again will I curse the ground because of humans, even though every inclination of the human heart is evil from childhood. And never again will I destroy all living creatures, as I have done. (My emphasis)
Genesis 9:12 And God said: โThis is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: 13 I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. 14 It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; 15 and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh. 16 The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.โ 17 And God said to Noah, โThis is the sign of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth.โ
Q: What were men trying to do at the Tower of Babel?
A: Built a tower to reach to Heaven.
Q: How did God make them spread out across the earth?
A: Confused their languages.
Why not ask how the earth is? Mark 6:10 clearly says that Adam and Eve were from the beginning of the creation. Genesis 5,11 offer an account of generations that is unique in the Bible, from which to count the years from Adam to Abraham. They give us an age of earth close to 6000 years. That protects us from the heresy of death before Adam, and God calling death โGood,โ among air breathing, land dwelling animals on earth. Also does away with the notion that God used primates to make humans.
And why not give reasons to know the flood was not local, but world wide?
The people at Babel intended to build a monument to themselves, probably to practice idolatry and its attending vices, and to have a rallying point, to not scatter and to spiritually depart from God.(Genesis 11:1-10). Godโs mandate to fill the earth was not to be thwarted: God confused their language (singular), by supernaturally causing them to speak in many different languages. That caused the people at Babel to scatter and obey Godโs mandate. Babel is the source of idolatry.
Q: Who was Abramโs handmaid?
A: Hagar
Hagar, first mentioned in Genesis 16:1, is called Saraiโs Egyptian handmaid. She may have been acquired when Abram and Sarai sojourned in Egypt (Genesis 12). I do not believe the Bible ever calls her Abram’s maid.
Why not also introduce the Abrahamic covenantโs promise of land: Genesis 12:1-3; 15:7, 18-21 etc.
Q: Who did Abraham have his second son with?
A: Sarah
Grammatically better to not drop preposition. How about โWho was the mother of Abramโs second son?โ
Q: Where did Hagar and her son leave to?
A: Into the desert
Another dangling modifier. Why not โWhere did Hagar and her son go when they were โCast out.โ (Genesis 21:10-14) They went to Egypt through the wilderness of Beersheba.
Q: What did Josephโs brothers tell their father had happened to him?
A: They said Joseph was killed by a wild animal.
Not quite right. See Gen 27:31-33. They gave to Jacob Josephโs coat, soaked in goat blood, and asked if he recognized it. Jacob concluded it was Josephโs and that he had been violently killed by a wild animal. The brothers, who knew better, did not deny that but did not tell him that.
Iโm so excited to start using this information with my โchurch kidsโ Thanks for all the work you did.
Jesus mother have other children after jesus ?
Tony,
Thank you for compiling these fun questions for kids! One point to note, Joseph interpreted dreams, your current answers read interrupted.
Thanks again!
Great stuff. Pg 3. The question is how many brothers Joseph had. He had 11 brothers (he was one of twelve sons) . Pg 4 gave me a little chuckle. Q: What did Joseph do for them? A: Interrupted their dreams and Q: Why was Joseph summoned out of prison by the Pharaoh? A: To interrupt his dream
I’ve had my dreams “interrupted” too. I enjoyed all the great work you are doing.

2 John is the shortest book not 3 John. 2nd John has 13 verses with 315 words and 3rd John has 14 verses with 337 words.
Third John is the shortest book of the Bible by word count, though 2 John has fewer verses.

God Bless you indeed
I Loved doing this with my little sisters they enjoyed it a lot and wanted to do it for hours I think that this is a good thing for your kids!
Thank you .These are a lot of questions though
Thank you so very much for these free for all resources.
See my observation below:
“Q: Why was Joseph summoned out of prison by the Pharaoh?
A: To interrupt his dream.”
I believe you meant to type “interpret” and not “interrupt”.
Dear brothers and sisters in the Lord, firstly, may i apologise to you in advance if at all i am on the wrong place doing a wrong thing, i am just kindly asking for your help in understanding the Bible.
Dear brothers and sisters, please help :
is there anywhere in the four (4) Bible gospels (MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE, JOHN) where it is written that someone or some people wanted to or were trying or planning or intending to or were threatening to Kill the twelve (12) disciples of Jesus Christ? is there such a verse just within the four (4) Bible gospels (MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE, JOHN) ? Please, please, help.
Thank you.
yes Mark 6:3
