Bible Oddities

Bible Oddities gives readers a plethora of unusual gems about persons, places, and events-all of which are found between the covers of the world's greatest best seller. And it does it in quiz form. It is a rich compilation of out-of-the-ordinary facts gleaned from the pages of this inspired work. For example, do you know the apostles were once accused of being drunk? Look in Acts 2:13. It happened at Pentecost! "Others mocking said, these men are full of new wine." Do you know about the man who diligently worked for seven long years in order to earn a wife? Look in Genesis 29:20. It was Jacob. "And Jacob served seven years for Rachel and they seemed to him but a few days..." Bible Oddities will expand your knowledge of the Bible. Yet it is a fun book, as well as an educational volume. It asks questions about unusual and out of the ordinary scriptural subjects, and gives answers to them from the Bible. And for each question and answer the appropriate book, chapter and verse of Bible is provided. Thus, you can reader further in the Bible and learn even more about the person, place, thing or event associated with any question and answer in Bible Oddities.
