The goal of this series — and by the way, we are doing the whole Bible as a questions and answers series — is simple. Here’s how it works: you read the beginning of a verse, then there is a question mark. This is the Book of Lamentations quiz.
Do not look ahead past the question mark. Try to answer what the end of the Bible verse says before reading on. This is an easy way to learn the Bible. Questions and answers is a fantastic way to make the mind work while we read Scripture. Every book of the Bible is covered in this Bible quiz series.
Nothing is added. Only when a difficult word is introduced do we add its meaning. The entire text below, and all the Bible quiz books in this series, contain only Bible verses. The question mark appears after the start of each verse so you can test whether you know what comes at the end. This is how you test your Bible knowledge. Good luck — the Book of Lamentations quiz.
