Who said it?
You get a line from the Bible and four names. Pick who said it. After each answer you see the reference and what was going on at the time.
Enjoyed that? There is a whole game of it.
This page is from the team behind Scrollway: Bible Study Game for iPhone and iPad. According to its App Store listing, it is a Bible trivia and quiz game you play your way through:
- Ten quick mini games, including Name the Hero, Verse Builder, Book Order and Earlier or Later
- Five-minute quiz lessons on the Bible's people, places, events and all 66 books
- A one-line "why" after every answer, with the verse right there
- A Scripture garden that grows with every right answer
- Fully offline, with no account and no ads
Quotes follow the World English Bible, which is in the public domain. Wording differs between translations. Scores on this page are not saved.
Using this with a group
Read the quote aloud first. Let people call out a name before you show the four options. It is harder and far more fun.
Open to the reference. Every answer gives chapter and verse. Reading the five verses around it turns a trivia question into a short study.
Ask the second question. "Who said it?" is recall. "Why did they say it?" is where the conversation starts.
Play in teams by age. Mixed-age teams work well: children often know the stories, adults know the letters.
About the wording
The quotes use the World English Bible, a modern public-domain translation that renders the divine name as "Yahweh" where many others print "the LORD". If a line sounds slightly different from the one you memorised, that is why.
Questions
How many questions are there?
Each game picks ten quotes at random from a pool of twenty, so two games in a row are rarely the same.
Which Bible translation do the quotes come from?
The World English Bible, which is in the public domain. Other translations word some of these lines differently.
Is it suitable for children?
Yes, from about age nine with some Bible background. Nothing is stored and there is nothing to sign up for.
