ANSWERS to "Bible Trivia for 300, Alex" posted on July 14:
Jeopardy (Basic): Who is Goliath? (A "giant" in the Old Testament can refer to either a legendary non-human figure, as in Gen 6:4, or to a human being of large stature. Goliath falls into the second category. Although many ancient texts describe Goliath as an unlikely "6 cubits and a span," or 9.5 feet, other ancient texts read "4 cubits and a span," or 6.5 feet.)
Double Jeopardy (Advanced): What is Gath? (Goliath of Gath is champion of the Philistines. The Philistines lived in five cities along the southern Mediterranean coastline. They challenged the Israelites for territory held further inland. Their ability to forge iron weaponry gave them a huge advantage over the Israelites.)
