Well, that was more torturous than I expected. To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth. Psa 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psa 46:2 Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into...

psalm 46. find the 46th word from the start, and the 46th word from the end. KJV

no, you gotta look up the words. no one related to the bible, but someone very well known.

Okay, here's some truly trivial trivia. Probably well known, but I only heard it for the first time this week. Who was 46 in 1611 when the KJV was published? Clue: 46th word + 46th last word from Psalm 46.

certainly had to go looking for that one, 'Dagon' 1 Sam 5:1-5 And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it from Ebenezer to Ashdod. And the Philistines took the ark of God and brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it beside Dagon. And when those of Ashdod arose early on the...

was it the philistine's god when they had the ark in their camp ? and the other god's fell over in the night, twice I think ??

what did David do to Saul when he had to take a call of nature in the very cave that David was hiding from him in?

ha ha, easy. he was struck dumb until he named his son John.

That would be Zedekiah. (I did have to look it up). Who was it that got their head stuck in a tree?

what did the natives do when Paul was bitten by the snake?

without looking it up, caesaria ?? on the 153, i really don't know. I did a little digging and it seems for centuries there have been all sorts of theories. I read one that said pretty much that and so put it that therefore it is likely just not significant. I can't really agree with that. I...

So, we're talking about Hebrews Ch11. My first thought was it must be someone before Abraham, since they were not Hebrew, but there was more than one. So the answer is Rahab the prostitute in Jericho - who btw is in the family line to Christ. But I would also say Abel, Enoch and Noah are all...

The disciples didn't really ask silly questions, we just don't understand where they are coming from because we are not brought up Jewish. I suppose this instance would go all the way back to Deuteronomy 28 where, as part of the covenant (with Israel, not gentiles) God promised that if they...

i think the 153 fish is when jesus told the disciples to cast the net on the other side of the boat??? i'd love to know the significance of the 153. anyone have any ideas?

If someone accidentally killed someone, they could flee to a city of refuge and be protected from the hand of the victim's avenger. Kind of like a sentence for manslaughter. How long were they to remain before they could safely leave the city's bounds?

Hmm, a low-confidence guess - Stephen ?

Ah, my mistake, Father123. When you said 'the author is blind..', I thought you were referring to me because it was as a response to my post. All good. R.

A good question. And the true answer is a dispensational one. Firstly, the 'ten commandments' and the rest of the Law were given to Israel, and the covenants (both old (Ex19) and new (Jer31) were with Israel - not gentiles. So as gentiles (assuming you are not Jewish), we are not and have never...

Keeping it civil. I was only making the point that looking at nature as an example of God's work, while wonderful for a Christian, would not be of much help to a non-believer - after all, atheists also think nature is wonderful. As an example, David Attenborough was once asked 'has studying...

people have been saying 'the end is near' for many centuries, so i am very skeptical any of us know. for some reason it is always soon, and in our lifetime. we all like to think it is getting close (myself included), but really, it could still be some way off. but i do agree, the creation of the...
