I would like to use one of my lifelines.

Are we talking about Jacob the man or Jacob as in "Israel" God's chosen people?
 
The trivia question leans toward "Isra'el'" the people, momi.....
I should've said that earlier. lol

For the transgression of Jacob is all this, and for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? = is it not Samaria? and what are the high places of Judah? are they not Jerusalem? Micah 1:5[/B] Laela - this passage is new to me and will definitely lead me to further study... even if my answer is incorrect. :drunk:


ETA: Israel's sin was forsaking The Lord and following after idols. Micah 1:5


"Final Answer". Lol

I would have to agree that him stealing Esau's birthright was the sin. I believe he lied about Rachel being his wife at some point but I wouldn't say that was his biggest sin. I think him stealing Esau's birthright is what caused so much strife in his life afterwards, even he though he tried to live upright.

Was having multiple wives considered sin? What about sleeping with his wives servants? I hope asking these questions isn't cheating lol

ETA: disregard my answer I just saw your post Laela.
 
lol @ Final Answer...

You're correct,momi.... and that is the Scriptural reference!

Samaria was the capital of the northern 10 tribes in their division against the two tribes of Judah (House of David, with Jerusalem as the capital). It was an affront to God and represents Jacob's rebellion. In Micah 1, the judgment is against Samaria.

You've got next.. lol



Other relevant references for study (for anyone interested):

Jesus and the Woman of Samaria
- spiritual rebirth

The Parable of the Good Samaritan
-love your neighbor

I agree Divine - his guilt about stealing the birthright was probably a thorn in his side the entire time. Great point!
 
Okay here we go - I figured this question would be appropos in light of the upcoming Un-Noah movie:

  1. How many groups of animals did G-d tell Noah to gather for the ark?
  2. What were the categories?
  3. Why do you think Noah was given a different number for each category?
  4. Where was the door located on the ark?
  5. Who was responsible for closing the door of the ark?
  6. Where was the vessel's final resting place after the flood waters finally receeded?
 
  1. How many groups of animals did G-d tell Noah to gather for the ark?
    3 groups Genesis 7:2
  2. What were the categories?
    7 pairs of every clean animals, one pair of every unclean animals, and 7 pairs of every birds Genesis 7:2
  3. Why do you think Noah was given a different number for each category?
    I think GOD wanted the clean animals and birds to reproduce more and be to be larger in number than the unclean animals.
  4. Where was the door located on the ark?
    Put a door on the side of the ship Genesis 6:16
  5. Who was responsible for closing the door of the ark?
    GOD shut the door behind him. Genesis 7:16
  6. Where was the vessel's final resting place after the flood waters finally receeded?
    The ship landed on the Ararat mountain Genesis 8:4

hairspan - CORRECT!

I would add that the greater number of clean animals allowed for food and also for sacrifices because Noah presented a sacrifice before The Lord after departing the ark.

You are up next!
 
King Jehoiakim burned the scroll.
Jeremiah 36:20-26 "After they put the scroll in the room of Elishama the secretary, they went to the king in the courtyard and reported everything to him. The king sent Jehudi to get the scroll, and Jehudi brought it from the room of Elishama the secretary and read it to the king and all the officials standing beside him. It was the ninth month and the king was sitting in the winter apartment, with a fire burning in the firepot in front of him. Whenever Jehudi had read three or four columns of the scroll, the king cut them off with a scribe’s knife and threw them into the firepot, until the entire scroll was burned in the fire. The king and all his attendants who heard all these words showed no fear, nor did they tear their clothes. Even though Elnathan, Delaiah and Gemariah urged the king not to burn the scroll, he would not listen to them. Instead, the king commanded Jerahmeel, a son of the king, Seraiah son of Azriel and Shelemiah son of Abdeel to arrest Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet. But the Lord had hidden them."

Shimmie,

I believe this is in Jeremiah 1. And it is meant to confirm God's calling on Jeremiah's life because he doubted that he could be used at such a young age??

I'm not sure if this is correct though....
 
1. Where in the Bible did Ahab request for Micaiah, the prophet to come to his abode?
2. Who suggested that Ahab get Micaiah?
3. What did Micaiah tell Ahab?
4. What were the false prophets saying to Ahab that contradicted the prophet Micaiah?
 
1 Where in the Bible did Ahab request for Micaiah, the prophet to come to his abode?
1 Kings 22
2. Who suggested that Ahab get Micaiah?
That would be Jehoshaphat. He requests that Ahab, “Inquire first for the word of the Lord” (1 Kings 22:5).

3. What did Micaiah tell Ahab?
Micaiah prophesies a true prophecy where he sees a meeting of God the heavenly hosts in which He asks who will entice Ahab to go into battle so that he may perish (1 Kings 22:19-20). A spirit comes forward, and offers to “be a lying spirit in the mouth of the prophets” Therefore, the prophecies of the other prophets were a result of the lying spirit.

4. What were the false prophets saying to Ahab that contradicted the prophet Micaiah?
Their prophecies were to Attack Ramoth Gilead and be victorious, “for the Lord will give it into the king’s hand.” (1 Kings 22:22).
