Correct answer: Joash. God had promised David that the throne would remain with his descendants. When Athaliah seized power, all the royal sons were killed, except for Joash. He was rescued and hidden in the temple. Joash was raised and protected by the priest Jehoiada and his wife, who took...

I tested this with two 18-year-old boys. They solved it very quickly, without using a computer nor a phone. It ultimately comes down to how well you know the Old Testament. I will give one more hint: it is a king found in the Books of Chronicles.

Nope, none of them. When you think about the right person, everything will fit exactly.

No, Mose did not turn into an ungrateful evil person. The hiss is there in the riddle to show who he was following.

Nope. It is a person who lived during OT times and is mentioned in the Bible.

I was spared because of a promise from above And received a lot of care and love. But was I thankful for this? No, I had a serpent’s hiss. My reign began faithfully, But it ended ungratefully.

I do believe in long-distance relationships. Right now, I feel a bit alone, and I would be open to a long-distance friendship. With messaging apps and free calls, it is possible to build a close friendship over long distances. A friendship maintained through calls and messages can sometimes...

I download F-Droid. All the apps there are opensource. From there I install apps like Andbible and NewPipe. From Google Play I install apps like the FMI weather app (for Finland), Whatsapp, Signal, bank apps, robot vacuum app, AI apps. I do have more apps installed, but those were the most...

I am actually thankful I did not have a chance to solve it. So thank you, @Snackersmom! :);)

I saw this riddle too late. When I saw it, the answer was already given. While I read through the posts I begun thinking about regexp and bash scripts. That is how I would have tried to solve it.

I have to confess I am kind of a people pleaser. If I can make someone happy, I become so happy myself. But if someone says something I do not agree with, I will never pretend to agree to please the other, nor will I go against my conscience. But I have had my share of being used by narcissists.

Yes, that's right. Marriage is already complicated enough, and with all these extra factors, there are bound to be plenty of challenges. This is another reason (besides those listed in first post) why I would prefer to move inside of my own country rather than to another country.

Here in the Nordic countries (Finland, Sweden etc.) you basically get free healthcare with a residence permit. It is not fully free, but very affordable, usually just a few tens of euros per visit. You get the permit by finding a job here or marrying someone who lives here. Citizenship is not...

This is a question many of us may eventually have to face. Younger people are often more willing to move far away, but the older you get, the harder it becomes. By middle age you usually have a stable job, children, maybe grandchildren, and close friends. Personally, I would prefer to stay...

I am thankful I did get that one wrong. :giggle:

Yes, it is king Manasseh! Congratulations! Manasseh was the son of Hezekiah. God had told Hezekiah that he was going to die, but he did not accept God's decision. He pleaded and God gave him 15 years more to live. During those extra years Manasseh was born, and he became to most evil king they...

No, it is not Ishmael, Moses nor Nebuchadnezzar.

Nope.
