Alright I did the quiz. I had thought that I was all done with the need to do well on tests but I felt a great deal of pressure. I think that the quiz was a very good wake up call to be sure that I was reading not just for the day but to remember.
ReplyDeleteHere are the things that I did not know:
I was able to name Cain, Abel and Seth but I have no idea how many sons that they ultimately had nor what were their names.
I did not remember Enoch.
I did not (and still don't know) which one of Noah's sons is the ancestor of Jesus. I could not find it.
I don't know the significance of all the barren women in Genesis. If it was in one of the blogs, I couldn't find it.
So I would have a solid C.
