Don’t understand why some people hate, I guess it makes them feel better when they tear others down. Hate should be reserved for those who try to undermine our natural God given rights. Vito 2 years ago 9/10 – Missed the 1st president, guess I remembered more of what I read in the Bible than what I thought. The miracle WAS how long the oil lasted. Miracles didn’t only happen in the New Testament. Pray for Israel (hostages, people, leaders, IDF, IAF). God Bless America & may we stand strong with Israel. Dianne 2 years ago 6/10 did better than I thought I would Broccoli Free Zone 2 years ago 5/10 Just studied the Dreidel, and still got it WRONG. So much for memory. Hot Dawg 2 years ago Had to use my “call a Jewish friend” lifeline. Kreu 2 years ago 8 of 10. Almost selected 7 branches on Q#4 until I noticed the background picture and could see 9 branches.

I just impulse answered instead of thinking them through. karen3.0 2 years ago 3/10, dont know a whole lot about it but could learn more! T. Anderson 2 years ago 6 of 10…all guesses. Beloved 2 years ago Jewish people are alright. It’s whoever that is referred to in Rev 2:9 and 3:9 that need to be addressed (and are not really Jewish). God help us all. Bob W 2 years ago 7/10 For years I thought my family was Jewish because my fathers parents fled Germany after WW1, my fathers sister, my Aunt, lived a Jewish life, and my fathers parents had money until the stock crash of 1929. An Ancestry. com search gave no answers. I was born in 1954. Ron 2 years ago Well, I did better than I thought I would – 6/10. Without guessing on any of those six, either. The rest were (bad) guesses. Danm 2 years ago 5/10 not bad.. Melinda 2 years ago I know very little about the Jewish faith. 7/10 right was due to easy guesses and deduction. Now I know a bit more. BobA 2 years ago I always thought the menorah had eight branches since the ninth was the shamash. The eight symbolize the time the oil lasted in the temple. Rich D 2 years ago 9/10 Pretty good. Loretta 2 years ago 8 of 10. Happy to know I remember the ancient history I learned in 4th grade. Is it taught in our schools today? l think not! Fredrick 2 years ago 5/10 and three of the five were guesses. Mary Annie 2 years ago 5 out of 10 for me. Learned a lot this week but my score doesn’t show it.

John Bass 2 years ago 9/10 Not too shabby. All were what I would consider common sense guesses, or just plain luck. T Smith 2 years ago The irony here is that there was no miracle.
