Hard Bible Riddles (Free Printable)

To kick off the new year, I’m cleaning out my inbox, starting with this request from a reader named Nelli who is looking for some hard Bible riddles. She writes:

Hi Jennifer,

Merry christmas and a blessed new year to you and your loved ones. Do you have riddles or hard bible questions on your blog? We seem to have run out of riddles. It would be great if you could share some.

Well, I invented a few riddles on the spot and sent them to her as quickly as I could — along with some links to several Bible trivia tests I’ve published in the past (scroll down for that list), but I’ve since come up with a few more and decided to share them on the blog today.

I used them this morning to quiz my youngest son, Gabriel (who turned 18 last month), to test how difficult they really are. Out of two dozen questions, he only missed two or three. Check them out below to see how well you do. I’ve included reference passages in case you get stumped, as well as an answer key. (No fair peeking until you give it the old college try!)

Although I didn’t have any Bible riddles posted when Nelli first wrote, I sent her a few with a promise to create more at my earliest convenience. Here are some I sent originally, followed by a collection of two dozen that will put your Bible knowledge to the test:

Here’s the full complement of questions. If any of them stump you, either look up the passage cited below the riddle or refer to page 4 of the PDF for the answer key.
