About this quiz

The traps are the other well known names of the New Testament: the writers Mark and Luke, Paul and his companions, and people from the Gospel stories.

  • James and Simon each stand for two of the twelve, and each is one button.
  • Mark and Luke have Gospels named after them, but neither is in Matthew's list of the twelve.
