Bible Trivia

to neutral onliner, I think that your post of this is not warranted in this thread. The purpose of this thread is entirely different. Please do not do this in the future or action will be taken, although oxford mushroom has answered your post, this is for bible trivia only, if you want a question clarified, please post a new topic. Thank you.Originally posted by neutral_onliner:I Kings 4:26 (KJV) says " And Solomon had forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen. " That is a lot of stalls. But II Chronicles disagrees with this count. It tells us, "Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horses." (II Chronicles 9:25 ) So was it 4000 stalls, or 40,000? Surely one of these verses is wrong.
Here is one last example. The book of Mark tells a story of a miracle. "Then one of the synagogue rulers, named Jairus, came there. Seeing Jesus, he fell at his feet and pleaded earnestly with him, 'My little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.'" ( Mark 5:22-23) Mark then tells how Jesus went to the ruler's home and, on the way, a woman is healed by touching his garment. Mark picks up the story again in verse 35. "While Jesus was still speaking, some men came from the house of Jairus, the synagogue ruler. 'Your daughter is dead,' they said. 'Why bother the teacher any more?' " So here we find that Jairus first comes and tells Jesus that his daughter is dying, and only later does Jairus find out that she is dead. Now let's look at the book of Matthew which says, "While he was saying this, a ruler came and knelt before him and said, 'My daughter has just died. But come and put your hand on her, and she will live.'" ( Matt. 9:1
Here the same ruler knows that the daughter is dead when he first comes to Jesus. And this happens before the garment touching incident. Can both Matthew and Mark be right? -

Yes, you are right I suppose, although I was thinking of another. Judah commited incest unknowingly (actually he was tricked by his daughter-in-law). There is another who did so knowingly.Originally posted by Icemoon:.. with my favourite Tamar lor.

Hint.
1. its in OT, and its a woman, it was so 'unknown' that the 'senior pastor' thought she was drunk.
2) Gid tell Abraham to do something, but Abraham did something additional.
3) Normal flood/tide is vertical, ie. water raise from bottom up, Tsunami is horizontal, ie. waters rush in from the side. -

self answer
1) 1Samuel 1:12-14
Eli watching Hannah praying, thought she drunk, cause he see her lips moving but hear no sound (silient tongue)
2) Gen 12:1-7
God tell Abram "leave your native country, your relatives and your father's family..."
Abram did leave, but he also bring a relative from his father's family along, ie. Lot.
3) Shortest prayer ....
Peter : "Save me, Lord" (as he was drowning) Matthew, 14:24-31.
4) I will leave this out for guessing a little longer, *Clue: some old serpent spewing water from its mouth... (hence water rush in from the side, like a tidal wave) -
