About this quiz
This is the Old Testament of Protestant Bibles: 39 books. Catholic Bibles have 46, adding Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch and 1 and 2 Maccabees.
- The first five books are Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy.
- The last twelve books, Hosea to Malachi, are what Article VI of the Church of England calls the twelve prophets the less.
- Typing Samuel, Kings or Chronicles alone is not enough: each is two books, so type 1 Samuel or First Samuel.
