Is this including the deuterocanonical books?

great quiz, but a little confusing due to the combo of people + places. think i would enjoy separate lists for the two. perhaps split it into 2 columns of top 20 or 25 each?

I was also going to suggest separating the people and the places. I would also suggest considering a separation of people's names from titles (Pharoh, Christ). At first I didn't know people and places, so I was surprised when #3 wasn't higher and I couldn't guess anyone above him. I was also surprised a certain woman's name didn't make the list.

i think i now understand why you combine people and places in one list. i am guessing it is hard to break down israel into references to the person (youd have to then combine those with jacob) and the place. same with the sons of jacob. tough stuff.

Yes, that is exactly why. However, I created another game called "Popular Bible Words by Category" in which I did break out People and Places as well a several other categories, and just left Israel off the People Names list altogether. Try that one and see if it works better for you!

Surprised to see more Moab than Mary and more Ammon than Canaan. First to get them all.

I was thrown off by having Christ and Jesus. Jesus is the name, Christ is really a title. Doesn't bother me as much with Pharaoh, because his name is never used. But I'd like to see Christ counted (since it is often used as his name) but I'd like to see Jesus and Christ combined as one answer. Perhaps the same with Zion and Jerusalem (I think they're the same--am I wrong?)
