You are spot on.... the answer to number 5, excess in everything could be considered wrong, but in relation to drinking.... remember Noah? He did enjoy over indulging in wine, but still was favored by our Father. And 7, G*d did not respond. Number 8, we speculate that she rode an ass, however the bible does not say. 9, Moses did not have horns, although he was painted by Michelangelo with horns, it is a bad translation of the ancient Hebrew word in the Aquila and the Vulgate text...which reads "his face had horns."

Thank you for taking your time on this. Apparently, you are the only one interested.

All good questions and I know the answers to some but not all.


1. They were kicked out so that they couldn't eat of the tree of life and live forever.

2. Jonah was eaten by a large fish that God created it doesn't say whale.

3. As Samson slept with his head in Delilah's lap she had her servants cut Samson's hair.

4. We don't know how many wise men that there were we are only told that the were three gifts. Gold Frankincense and Myrrh.

5. The Bible condemns excess drinking or drunkenness and I am going to guess that it also condemns gambling and betting although most of the livelihood was farming back then and that is a form of betting that you will receive a good cfop to make a profit.

6. That quote is not in the Bible.

7. Don't know.

8. I believe that Mary rode on the back of a donkey but it doesn't say that and the only thing we have to go on is that Mary was pregnant and the trip would have been difficult for her being pregnant.

9.Moses face shone or was bright I do not believe that Moses had horns after receiving the ten commandments from God.

10. Rapture is not in the Bible but is interpreted from the phrase catching away of the believers.
