You may want to remove Zeus. Not only is his name mentioned (at least in the English translation) in Acts 14:12, also his name appears in the original Greek (Διοσκούροις) in Acts 28:11. So he is technically mentioned from the "English translation only" perspective but also from the "original Greek" perspective as well.

Moreover, no matter which perspective you take, the bottom line is that both of these are in fact at the very least references to Zeus.

Shoot, I now see that Zeus is also mentioned in 2 Maccabees (and you can't get any more direct than this reference). So if you want to go with the Orthodox/Catholic deuterocanonical definition of Bible, Zeus is certainly mentioned.

This illustrates why you should spend a few minutes on Wikipedia whenever you make a quiz. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeus#The_Bible:

Zeus is mentioned in the New Testament twice... The deuterocanonical book of 2 Maccabees 6:1...

The word itself is built from Διός, which in this context means Zeus. Look at the first four characters and it’s evident.

I don't think Zeus should be removed, rather it should be changed to be a correct answer.

Got curious about Lilith. Apparently the person isn't mentioned in the Bible. But the Hebrew word לִילִית appears in the original text in Isaiah (34:14). It's translated into English as night creature, but it's the same word that means Lilith. I think she's named after the word.

Lilit the first wife of Adam and/or causer of crib deaths is midrashic. Unclear if she's named after the word, or the other way around.

The translation of the word is also very disputed: liliyot might be a type of dangerous demon (in some traditions, they're vampire-like), a type of dangerous but not supernatural animal, or a spooky but harmless animal (perhaps a screech-owl).

Interesting. Yep, I read those other translations. Quite a difference between telling someone you saw a screech-owl in your garden last night vs a vampiric demon!

She was very well named after the word or creature the word refers to.

I think I can 100% say Lilith never existed.

I find the need to take a stab at other Christian denominations by adding "purgatory" to the quiz very sad. Sure, the word itself does not appear, but several verses do support a form of purification after death. The word Trinity doesn't appear as such either, and yet it is integral to most Christians' beliefs. Do we really need religious turf wars on Jetpunk?

I thought the quiz is specifically about what words appear in the Bible, not about concepts. So I dont really see any reason for turf war here.

No, quiz instructions don't mention "words", but places, things etc. And purgatory is present in the Bible.

This is reeeeeaaaally reaching. I think it's pretty clear the quiz is asking "Can you find this word in the Bible?" Even if the concept of purgatory is touched upon, it isn't mentioned directly. I seriously doubt anyone is trying to "take a stab" (speaking of not understanding terms, he meant to say "take a shot") at any denominations. Just a case of a few commenters being too easily offended.

Lilith is in the Bible at least in the translations I have read (finnish) in Isaiah 34.14. I know many translations have translated it to something else such as "night creature" but if im not mistaken the original Hebrew word is Lilith.

How strange. The King James version renders it as this:

"The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island, and the satyr shall cry to his fellow; the screech owl also shall rest there, and find for herself a place of rest."

Apparently the Hebrew is indeed "lilith" (לילי), which is in this context could mean the screech owl, or possibly a Mesopotamian demon.

I changed the clue to Lilith (wife of Adam), which is not supported by the text.

It's a bit misleading to have trombone as a wrong answer when:

a) A sackbut is an early form of trombone

b) The Luther bible says "Posaune" which means trombone

Is the word "trombone" mentioned anywhere in the Bible? Those words you mentioned are not trombones.
jmellor13

Yeah, but if "posaune" is the direct translation of "trombone," so in a German Bible, yes, trombones are mentioned. There are a billion words to choose from. It's probably worthwhile to remove one this uncertain and replace it with any of the many words that definitely aren't in there at all.

I was unsure of "Tower of Babel" since I think it is technically not mentioned in the Bible and only referred to as "the tower" which is in the city of Babel. Very nitpick-y but not dissimilar to Lilith or the purgatory
