Noah and the Ark – QUIZ
C. Warren Andreasen
Anybody who has ever attended Sunday School, and most who have, have heard the story of Noah and the Ark. I would guess that most people feel they have a pretty good idea of what happened and feel they know the story…. But do they? How about you? Take the following quiz and find out how much you know of this most known Bible story. This is not a child’s story, it is history.
For your help, this is an open book quiz. You will find all of the information required to answer the questions located in the Old Testament in Genesis (first book of the Bible), Chapter 5, verse 28 through Chapter 9, verse 28. You will find some questions are quite easy with direct answers found in one verse, however some of the answers must be figured out using clues and other information given, and not all questions have a precise answer. This special question will be identified as a point to ponder. Now let’s get started.
