ANSWERS to "Bible Trivia for 500, Alex" posted on July 21:
Jeopardy (Basic): What is the number 7? (Seven symbolizes perfection in the Bible. Six is a symbol of imperfection because it falls short of seven. The English idiom "to be at sixes and sevens" (suggesting confusion) may originate from these symbolic numbers, owing to a kind of tension between perfection and imperfection.)
Double Jeopardy (Advanced): What is Turkey. (Usually referred to as Asia Minor in discussions of the ancient world, this country also contains the birthplace of St. Paul--Tarsus. It borders the Mediterranean Sea on the south, the Black Sea on the north and the Aegean Sea on the west.)
