	I can understand your point of view, Tahan, but I'll let the man speak for himself: "circumcised the eighth day, of the nation of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews." (Philippians 3:5)

	Xerxes is a dubious translation of Ahashverosh.

	Also, there is a non-Jewish Deborah who appears earlier than the more important one.

	I surprised not to see Cain or Abel in there.

	@Tahnan: Paul is descended from Israel, and therefore a non-non-Jew, per the instructions. Ruth, who converts to Judaism, is a non-Jew per the same instructions.

	How are you defining Jewish here? Stephen was a Hellenist. Jewish by religion - non-Jewish by culture.

	44 seconds. YES.

	@Tahnan: A Jew who believes in Jesus is still a Jew. They are simply a Jewish believer in Jesus, the same way someone might be an Irish or Italian or Polish believer in Jesus. Jews don't give up their heritage, history, or lineage when they start believing in Jesus.

	mallorn_hugger: What do you mean by being a "believer in Jesus"? Do you mean that Jesus existed or that Jesus was a man but was the messiah or that Jesus was God? One of the 13 Principles of Faith in Judaism is that God is One, indivisible and without form or flesh. The minute you start to believe in the divinity of Jesus or the Trinity, you cannot consider yourself religiously Jewish, only as a matter of lineage. They are not compatible. Less significant is the belief of Jesus as messiah. Jews don't believe that Jesus was the Messiah predicted in the Hebrew Bible because Jesus did not deliver that which was promised in the Messianic Age. Christians believe that Jesus will do all that upon returning. Believing that Jesus existed at all only requires common sense.

	I didn't even think of clicking Nebuchadnezzar as a non-Jew because of the old children's rhyme "Nebuchadnezzar, king of the Jews", turns out it was a lie. I'm beggining to suspect that maybe Batman doesn't smell and Robin never layed an egg.

	@Mitch: believer in Jesus- that you believe He is who He said He is. Yes, of course this is incompatible with the Jewish -faith- which is why I said in my first comment that they "don't give up their heritage, history, or lineage," but did not include religious beliefs in that list. Basically, I am saying Christian Jews (like Paul) exist. I have several in my life. :)

	There is a point of view that says that if you truly share the faith of Abraham and Moses, you will accept that Jesus is the promised Jewish Messiah and thus prove yourself a true Jew. Paul was referring to this concept when he said: " For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh..." Romans 2:27-29

	I like your quiz a lot, however, technically a Jew is anyone who has descended from the Tribe of Judah. All things considered Paul was a Benjamite, Aaron a Levite, and Naphtali was founder of the tribe of Naphtali... All the tribes together make God's people--the Jews are one twelfth of Jacob's descendants. I say this in good faith and am not trying to pick apart your great quiz... I just feel it my duty to point out this discrepancy.

	You got one thing right I've seen wrong elsewhere... that is that some people have a tendency to call the ancestors of the Jewish people Jewish. Adam, Seth, Enosh, Kenan, Mahalalel, Jared, Enoch, Methuselah, Lamech, Noah, Shem, Arphaxad, Shelah, Eber, Peleg, Reu, Serug, Nahor, Terah, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob weren't Jews but they were of the Righteous Line.
