The Michael Knowles Show - Test Your BIBLE IQ： Michael Knowles vs. Protestant

00:00:00.000 I'm about to get completely destroyed.

00:00:03.300 Jeremiah, thank you for coming on the show.

00:00:05.240 Thank you for surprising this show

00:00:07.460 and probably ruining my record at 5th of you.

00:00:13.860 I can't wait.

00:00:15.100 Thank you for having me.

00:00:15.820 How you doing?

00:00:16.580 So, first of all, everyone knows who Jeremiah is.

00:00:19.800 You've seen his excellent interview.

00:00:22.340 I say this with no flattery.

00:00:23.820 One of the very best Mike Lanns we have ever done,

00:00:26.880 seen by zillions of people on the Shroud of Turin.

00:00:30.800 If you haven't seen it yet, go watch it now.

00:00:33.180 It's on Daily Wire Plus.

00:00:34.420 It's on YouTube and everywhere else.

00:00:37.200 How have you been, sir?

00:00:39.940 I've been phenomenal, Michael.

00:00:41.560 I'm just trying to follow in your footsteps.

00:00:43.200 You're a scholar and you're a gentleman, brother.

00:00:44.900 So, I'm just doing my best out here.

00:00:46.400 I will tell you this.

00:00:47.220 We're on a tour with the Shroud all around the world. 1.00

00:00:49.980 Every place I go, people walk up to me that watch Michael Knowles.

00:00:53.680 And many of them now are following Jesus

00:00:57.260 as a result of our interview on the Shroud of Turin.

00:01:00.160 So, how can we define success better than that?

00:01:03.100 That is awesome.

00:01:04.300 I love it.

00:01:05.500 Now, you're also, you're setting me up with all these nice high expectations

00:01:10.980 just to knock me down when you crushed me at Bible Trivia.

00:01:13.960 Okay.

00:01:14.240 It is Theology Thursday.

00:01:15.740 Theology Thursday.

00:01:23.680 Oh, this is going to be so awful.

00:01:33.120 So awful.

00:01:35.480 So, it's Bible Trivia Miscellaneous.

00:01:39.100 First question.

00:01:41.940 The command, fear not, among other synonymous phrases such as do not be afraid

00:01:45.980 are widely known as the most repeated command in the Bible.

00:01:49.260 How many times is it repeated closest without going over?

00:01:52.260 And I'll be first, right?

00:01:55.560 Because I'm, when it's a lady, we say ladies first. 0.85

00:01:58.220 But if it's a guy, I go first.

00:01:59.640 Okay.

00:02:00.920 Closest without going over.

00:02:01.800 So, this is, this is angels talking about, this is our Lord.

00:02:06.180 This is, gosh, in the whole Bible.

00:02:11.740 All 73 books.

00:02:16.540 Let's see.

00:02:18.520 I don't know.

00:02:19.480 So, 151.

00:02:29.680 Jeremiah?

00:02:32.120 No.

00:02:32.620 Is it my turn?

00:02:33.660 Yes.

00:02:34.180 Oh, no.

00:02:34.740 I'm going to go with the exact 365 times.

00:02:41.000 Please, if it's 364, I win.

00:02:43.560 It's, it's 365.

00:02:50.720 This is going to, this is going to be so bad.

00:02:54.920 So, someone said 331 on here.

00:02:57.000 I'm not going to look when it, people, people actually were guessing it wrong.

00:03:01.360 I always, it's very offensive when I guess it and everyone in the chat knows the answer.

00:03:05.040 Okay.

00:03:05.340 How old was Moses when he died?

00:03:06.720 My turn?

00:03:11.120 Yes.

00:03:13.000 I'm going to say how old.

00:03:14.620 He dies on Mount Nebo overlooking the promised land.

00:03:17.560 I've been to the prelace of his death.

00:03:19.780 Is it 140?

00:03:21.140 Am I close?

00:03:21.880 Am I in the ballpark?

00:03:22.860 140?

00:03:23.800 You say 140?

00:03:25.280 140?

00:03:25.420 It's like, I can't, I want the opportunity.

00:03:33.040 Over, under?

00:03:34.080 It's, yeah, what's closest without going over.

00:03:35.960 So, I want the opportunity to beat you, even though you're probably right.

00:03:41.460 It's probably like literally 140 or, or slightly higher.

00:03:45.040 So, I'm like, but I want the opportunity to beat you so much.

00:03:47.740 I'm going to say 70, such that if it's 139, I win.

00:03:50.800 Okay.

00:03:51.300 I say 70.

00:03:52.280 Okay.

00:03:54.300 120, let's go!

00:03:56.020 Let's go!

00:03:57.140 All right.

00:03:58.480 Oh, yeah, baby.

00:04:00.220 We're back.

00:04:00.900 Okay.

00:04:01.440 The shortest verse in the Bible consists of two words.

00:04:04.180 What are those words?

00:04:05.020 And what book is it found in?

00:04:07.000 Two possible points.

00:04:09.320 Okay.

00:04:09.660 The verse is Jesus wept.

00:04:11.160 So, I at least get my one point.

00:04:13.160 And it's found in, gosh, I don't know what gospel it's found in.

00:04:17.680 This is not, not just to be an excuse, but, you know, because Catholics tend to read the

00:04:21.440 Bible liturgically, you know, in like a one to three year cycle. 0.93

00:04:24.320 Like, I don't know.

00:04:25.200 Oh, I don't, like, uh, uh, is it in, I don't know, Luke?

00:04:34.620 What do you think?

00:04:35.300 What do you say?

00:04:37.560 Well, we need to, we need to push back on Professor Jacob a little bit.

00:04:40.800 Are we talking in the English Bible or the Greek New Testament?

00:04:43.480 Because it's actually, there's actually a shorter verse in the Greek New Testament.

00:04:47.240 What's the shorter?

00:04:47.720 I'm going to go, I can answer his question, but rejoice always in the Greek, there's 138,000

00:04:53.880 words in the Greek New Testament.

00:04:55.260 And so rejoice always in Philippians is technically the shortest verse in the Greek New Testament,

00:05:00.480 which the New Testament books that we share were written in.

00:05:03.400 But in the English translation, Jesus wept, I'm going with Matthew's gospel on that one.

00:05:09.260 You say Matthew, okay.

00:05:10.340 And I was about to say all that stuff about the Philippians and everything.

00:05:13.220 I just, you took it out of my mouth.

00:05:16.080 Jesus wept.

00:05:17.420 You know what's weird?

00:05:19.320 John.

00:05:20.240 John 1135.

00:05:21.200 John.

00:05:22.920 Wow.

00:05:23.400 I'm so glad that you got that wrong.

00:05:26.620 So we're tied, we're tied right now.

00:05:28.240 Now I almost want the, I want the equipment to break now so that I can say, well, we tied,

00:05:33.220 you know, we tied after.

00:05:33.960 You messed me up on the English.

00:05:35.360 Yeah.

00:05:35.760 You messed me up on the English translation.

00:05:37.940 All right.

00:05:38.220 What is the only book in the Bible that does not specifically mention God by name?

00:05:43.680 Oh, huh.

00:05:45.280 Your turn or my turn?

00:05:47.240 Your turn.

00:05:47.840 And I actually, I don't even mean this just to poke and prod.

00:05:51.200 This is for Professor Jacob.

00:05:52.740 Are we talking about the Protestant Bible with 66 books or are we talking about 73 books?

00:05:58.440 Jacob is on a rendezvous with Destiny and so it's a, but it's just the real Bible, man.

00:06:03.920 Yeah.

00:06:04.140 The real Bible.

00:06:05.120 Yeah.

00:06:05.340 This is included in yours as well.

00:06:08.200 Okay.

00:06:08.500 Now, can I give you a hint, Michael?

00:06:10.160 Can I give you a lifeline hint?

00:06:12.280 Yes, please.

00:06:13.140 Please do.

00:06:14.340 Okay.

00:06:14.900 This is the one book that is also not included in the Dead Sea Scrolls.

00:06:19.380 If that, in the Dead Sea Scrolls that we have, that we've recovered from Qumran, this is 0.59

00:06:23.820 the one book that is not there.

00:06:25.400 So that's a huge hint for you because it doesn't mention the divine name.

00:06:29.260 If I were educated, Jeremiah, that would be a huge hint.

00:06:37.620 Okay.

00:06:38.020 If I were like knowledgeable and literate, that would be helpful to me.

00:06:41.620 I appreciate you're presuming that about me incorrectly.

00:06:45.260 Um, I don't, uh, is it, so it's not a Deutero-canonical.

00:06:59.040 It's not, it's, it's, I don't, I'm going to say like Ecclesiastes.

00:07:04.500 I don't know.

00:07:06.940 Okay.

00:07:07.460 It's Old Testament and it's going to be the book of Esther, which never mentions the name

00:07:11.920 of God.

00:07:12.380 Esther.

00:07:13.980 Do I get credit because I started with an E?

00:07:16.680 I picked Ecclesiastes.

00:07:17.940 Yes, you do.

00:07:19.040 Do I get any credit?

00:07:20.340 Do I get partial credit?

00:07:21.340 It's the book of Esther.

00:07:23.280 Wow.

00:07:23.900 Okay.

00:07:25.020 All right.

00:07:26.200 Who was the only non-Jew referenced as anointed one in the Hebrew Bible?

00:07:32.360 Hmm.

00:07:34.940 Ooh.

00:07:36.280 The only non-Jew. 1.00

00:07:38.320 Well, that would be Melchizedek. 0.96

00:07:42.380 He was so confident.

00:07:43.920 I'm going to say Melchizedek. 0.97

00:07:44.660 King of Salem.

00:07:48.520 I can't believe you would mislead me like that, Jeremiah.

00:07:51.380 It is apparently Cyrus the Great.

00:07:54.260 Apparently.

00:07:54.720 Now, look, I don't know.

00:07:55.920 Okay.

00:07:56.220 This might be some, some sort of Semitic subversion by Professor Jacob.

00:08:00.180 I think, I think, I think Professor Jacob needs help on this one.

00:08:05.020 I think it might be Melchizedek too.

00:08:06.580 I've said it for years.

00:08:07.600 Okay.

00:08:08.100 King of Salem.

00:08:08.840 Well, as long as you didn't get it right and I got it wrong, I don't even, I don't even

00:08:12.660 care.

00:08:13.080 Okay.

00:08:13.300 When Joseph was in prison in Egypt, he was with two other prisoners whose dreams he interpreted.

00:08:18.100 What were the occupations of the two prisoners?

00:08:20.180 Two points possible.

00:08:21.240 Oh man.

00:08:21.920 I don't know.

00:08:23.900 Do you remember?

00:08:24.520 Look at him smiling.

00:08:25.400 Look at him.

00:08:25.720 He was also not Jewish.

00:08:34.780 Yeah.

00:08:35.060 Okay.

00:08:36.340 Thank you, Ben.

00:08:37.200 Frequently wrong, but never in doubt.

00:08:38.400 Thank you, Professor Babies.

00:08:40.860 I don't know.

00:08:49.720 A barber and a farmer.

00:08:51.980 That's what I say.

00:08:53.500 A barber and a farmer.

00:08:55.720 Did I get them both right?

00:08:58.820 A barber.

00:08:59.860 He was, he was, he was giving the, trimming the sideburns of the Pharaoh.

00:09:05.260 All right.

00:09:06.140 What's the answer?

00:09:06.760 My turn?

00:09:07.520 Yeah.

00:09:08.460 I'm going to go because I try to read the picture Bible to my boys every night.

00:09:12.040 So they would be ashamed of me if I got this wrong.

00:09:15.100 I'm going to go the two occupations when Dan, when Joseph is in prison would be the baker

00:09:21.440 and the cup bearer of the king.

00:09:23.140 The baker, the baker, yes.

00:09:25.880 Do you know actually how I first encountered that?

00:09:27.080 One of them doesn't make it.

00:09:29.200 Yeah, right.

00:09:30.300 I know.

00:09:30.740 Do you know the reason this is kind of embarrassing, I'm telling on myself, because when I was a

00:09:34.560 kid, I was in a production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

00:09:38.020 Even before, I think that was even before I read the book of Genesis in full for the first

00:09:41.600 time.

00:09:41.860 Okay.

00:09:43.020 Cup bearer and baker.

00:09:44.200 Okay.

00:09:45.260 I got the B, B, A.

00:09:47.780 That's right.

00:09:48.160 Do I get partial credit for that?

00:09:49.760 Right now, go to catholicmatch.com.

00:09:52.780 You know what gives me hope even when our culture seems to be spiraling at times?

00:09:56.160 Faith-filled families raising kids who can actually turn things around.

00:09:59.520 But here's the thing.

00:10:00.700 That cannot happen if faithful Catholics are not getting married and having babies. 0.86

00:10:04.580 I keep hearing from young people about how difficult it is to find other serious Catholics

00:10:08.460 to date.

00:10:08.900 You know, even sometimes they show up to the traditional Latin mass where the odds are

00:10:12.660 good, but the goods are odd.

00:10:13.620 Well, look, there's no magical solution out there, but I have become acquainted with the

00:10:18.240 team at catholicmatch.com, and I can say they're doing something different.

00:10:22.140 They're focused on sacramental marriage, not hookups, not the endless swiping, not the

00:10:26.960 commoditization of human beings, actual marriage.

00:10:33.420 to help people make meaningful connections.

00:10:38.900 on the important stuff, liturgical preference.

00:10:41.300 Did I mention?

00:10:42.240 Did I just mention the traditional Latin mass?

00:10:44.500 Good thing to fill it out in there.

00:10:50.040 a screen.

00:11:10.940 Who was Moses' sister?

00:11:15.200 You're up.

00:11:18.360 Miriam.

00:11:19.140 Song of the Sea, right?

00:11:20.940 I'm going to say Miriam, because that's what Jeremiah said.

00:11:26.240 The answer is Miriam.

00:11:28.240 Pretty good.

00:11:29.560 Okay.

00:11:30.620 Who was Moses' brother?

00:11:34.440 Wasn't...

00:11:34.960 This is too easy.

00:11:36.220 Yeah, it wasn't Bob.

00:11:37.400 Is this from Professor Jacob?

00:11:38.340 Yeah, is that...

00:11:40.180 Was it, uh...

00:11:43.040 Wait, am I...

00:11:44.320 Gary.

00:11:44.820 Is this, like, really easy?

00:11:46.120 Am I...

00:11:46.340 I'm overthinking...

00:11:46.920 It's, like, the easiest question that I could possibly answer.

00:11:49.440 You're totally...

00:11:50.060 Can I give you another hint?

00:11:51.500 Remember, they held up his arms.

00:11:53.840 Remember, who were the two men that held up his arms?

00:11:56.080 And as long as Moses' arms were being held up, they had victory in battle.

00:12:00.120 Remember that?

00:12:00.900 Such and such and such and such held up his arms in battle.

00:12:05.760 I remember his arms being held up.

00:12:09.040 Is it, like, is this going to be...

00:12:10.500 Is this an answer that is obvious?

00:12:12.460 Like, is it one of the most famous people in the Bible?

00:12:14.580 I'm trying to think.

00:12:16.500 Yes.

00:12:16.860 Is his name also a woman's name?

00:12:18.260 Well, I mean...

00:12:20.260 No.

00:12:21.360 It is not a gender-neutral name, thank God. 0.73

00:12:29.820 I'm going to say Bob.

00:12:30.680 You want me to tell you the name of the other guy?

00:12:33.260 No.

00:12:33.780 It's only going to prolong my torture.

00:12:35.260 I say Bob.

00:12:36.020 What say you?

00:12:37.460 Okay.

00:12:38.560 I'm going to say Aaron.

00:12:40.280 No!

00:12:40.680 Hey! 0.99

00:12:41.000 That's BS!

00:12:41.840 You said it's not a...

00:12:42.960 I said, is it also a woman's name?

00:12:44.460 Because I was going to say Aaron.

00:12:45.920 And you said it's not.

00:12:48.260 Aaron is a woman's name.

00:12:50.060 E-R-I...

00:12:50.680 I want my point for Aaron.

00:12:52.300 Give me my point for Aaron.

00:12:53.420 Oh my gosh.

00:12:53.920 He fooled me.

00:12:54.900 That was deceit.

00:12:55.480 I was thinking about how it was spelled.

00:12:57.340 Yeah, that...

00:12:57.880 No, I want my point.

00:12:58.500 This is not a disqualification.

00:13:00.340 I want my point for that.

00:13:01.580 It's outrageous.

00:13:02.440 I should have had more confidence in one of the most famous figures in the Bible.

00:13:05.740 I'm thinking in the Hebrew, Aaron.

00:13:07.680 No woman was named Aaron in the Hebrew, I can assure you.

00:13:10.800 Now, look at this kind of deceit and fraud.

00:13:13.660 What city's walls fell after the Israelites marched around it for seven days? 0.95

00:13:21.540 This is...

00:13:22.000 No, it's yours.

00:13:24.140 I've been there.

00:13:25.440 It's actually the oldest city in the world.

00:13:29.060 And this would be none other than Jericho.

00:13:31.880 Who fit the battle of it?

00:13:35.460 This is a bonus point.

00:13:37.200 Who fit the battle of Jericho?

00:13:38.760 Who fit the battle?

00:13:42.300 Who fit the battle of Jericho?

00:13:43.960 To quote some of my wonderful black Protestant brothers singing hymns.

00:13:50.500 I'm not sure what that means.

00:13:52.660 Joshua fit the battle of Jericho. 0.68

00:13:54.960 Am I going to get canceled for my African American vernacular?

00:13:58.280 I'm not used to the slang.

00:13:58.840 I'm sorry.

00:14:00.420 Do you not know...

00:14:01.320 That's a great Baptist hymn.

00:14:02.740 That's a great one.

00:14:03.560 Joshua fit the battle of Jericho. 0.68

00:14:05.780 All right.

00:14:06.360 I'm not...

00:14:06.760 No more.

00:14:07.420 I'm not going...

00:14:07.960 I'm going to be canceled for even singing it.

00:14:10.440 In Revelation, what color is the horse representing death?

00:14:15.820 You mean the apocalypse?

00:14:18.880 Yes.

00:14:19.460 I said that the other day to someone.

00:14:20.860 I was like in the book of the apocalypse.

00:14:23.000 And looked...

00:14:23.360 Maybe it was Mr. Davies.

00:14:24.060 Looked at me like I was crazy.

00:14:25.100 It's the apocalypse.

00:14:26.000 Yeah.

00:14:26.620 No, it's the apocalypse in Greek.

00:14:29.360 That right...

00:14:30.200 The horse is white.

00:14:32.560 I'm glad you said that because my answer...

00:14:34.920 I was supposed to answer that one first.

00:14:36.460 But I wanted you to answer for me because you know me.

00:14:38.920 I...

00:14:39.480 I think we get credit for this.

00:14:43.200 It's pale or ashen.

00:14:44.940 I think we get credit for that, right?

00:14:46.580 Yeah.

00:14:46.820 Okay.

00:14:46.940 Well...

00:14:47.460 Oh.

00:14:48.080 Actually, White Horse was like the first one with the crown.

00:14:50.140 So I don't know if either one of y'all got that.

00:14:51.580 We don't...

00:14:51.860 Oh, we might...

00:14:52.380 Okay.

00:14:52.700 All right.

00:14:53.320 Pale.

00:14:53.920 Pale.

00:14:54.260 Okay.

00:14:56.640 Ready?

00:14:58.100 Which prophet was taken captive to Babylon as a young man and interpreted dreams for the 0.98

00:15:03.420 king?

00:15:05.760 Is it my...

00:15:06.360 No, it's now it's...

00:15:07.220 It's Jeremiah's.

00:15:08.880 You can go to the museum in Berlin, Germany, the Pergamum Museum, and you can walk through

00:15:16.460 the beautiful purple Ishtar Gate that this prophet would have walked through when he was 0.59

00:15:21.440 taken captive, likely at 14, 15, 16.

00:15:25.220 One of my favorite verses in all the Old Testament in Daniel 1, verse 8, that Daniel purposed in

00:15:31.300 his heart to serve the Lord as he walked through those horrible gates of Babylon.

00:15:35.500 It's Daniel.

00:15:36.300 Has to be.

00:15:37.900 I did not know any of that, or even...

00:15:40.580 I don't know really anything about Germany.

00:15:42.420 But I did know the Daniel part.

00:15:43.640 I say Daniel.

00:15:44.640 It is Daniel.

00:15:45.720 Okay.

00:15:46.720 Which prophet's name means salvation?

00:15:53.760 Uh...

00:15:54.760 This is so brutal.

00:16:02.720 Is it?

00:16:06.960 I don't...

00:16:07.760 It's my turn, right?

00:16:09.920 I'm going up against a guy who knows, like, old languages.

00:16:13.340 I don't even...

00:16:14.200 I barely have Latin.

00:16:17.020 Uh...

00:16:17.500 I...

00:16:17.900 You have Latin very well.

00:16:20.060 You're too kind.

00:16:22.320 Itavero.

00:16:22.920 Itavero.

00:16:23.440 Salve.

00:16:23.900 Salve.

00:16:24.260 Salve.

00:16:31.800 Isaiah?

00:16:35.200 No, it's not.

00:16:36.040 What is it?

00:16:37.540 What is it?

00:16:38.240 I'm going to go with Hosea.

00:16:40.240 Hosea.

00:16:44.520 It's Hosea.

00:16:46.140 Do I get credit for Isaiah?

00:16:48.540 Do I get half credit for the Isaiah?

00:16:51.980 Okay.

00:16:52.680 What were Noah's priests...

00:16:53.400 Remember what they said, Michael?

00:16:54.660 Remember what they said?

00:16:55.600 Hosanna.

00:16:56.280 Hosanna.

00:16:56.840 He who comes in the name of...

00:16:58.060 That means our God saves.

00:16:59.540 That's too easy.

00:17:00.440 When Jesus...

00:17:01.140 When they saw Jesus, they said Hosanna.

00:17:02.820 That's like his sister.

00:17:04.280 Hosanna.

00:17:05.240 It was Hosea and Hosanna.

00:17:07.220 Okay.

00:17:07.780 What were Noah's three sons' names?

00:17:10.860 You're up.

00:17:12.000 You can...

00:17:12.220 This is like a relatively...

00:17:13.280 That's a pretty easy one.

00:17:14.120 Is that Ham, Shem, and Japheth? 0.94

00:17:17.860 Am I right on that?

00:17:18.900 I believe you are.

00:17:20.280 I believe...

00:17:20.740 That's my answer as well.

00:17:21.960 Yes.

00:17:23.780 Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

00:17:25.880 You can't name a kid Ham anymore.

00:17:27.260 You have a lot of my answers.

00:17:28.460 Yeah, you can't...

00:17:29.740 You can't...

00:17:30.480 It's weird that you can't name a kid Ham anymore.

00:17:33.320 Where was the wedding that Jesus turned water into wine?

00:17:36.960 I would say...

00:17:38.060 His first miracle.

00:17:39.500 No, let me try to...

00:17:40.720 If...

00:17:41.340 Unfortunately, Jeremiah does know all the answers, but I...

00:17:44.340 Like, I wish I could fake him out a little bit, you know?

00:17:46.880 Be like...

00:17:48.720 Be like a kid.

00:17:49.660 I don't even know how to do it.

00:17:50.620 It's Cana.

00:17:51.240 He said, my time has not come yet to his mom.

00:17:53.220 Yes.

00:17:53.840 Yeah, it's Cana.

00:17:54.540 Got it.

00:17:55.160 It's Cana.

00:17:55.900 Okay.

00:17:56.340 All right.

00:17:56.780 I got one...

00:17:58.580 I actually got two easy ones because of the Aaron one.

00:18:01.720 All right.

00:18:02.920 How many total commandments are there in the Torah?

00:18:05.380 This is in the Jewish version, not the, like, you know, like, fulfilled version. 0.71

00:18:10.440 Well, how many commands...

00:18:11.260 How many commandments are there in the Torah?

00:18:14.220 Oh, it's your...

00:18:14.900 Late Second Temple Judaism.

00:18:17.220 Late Second Temple Judaism, Jesus is approached by the nomikos, the grammatus in Greek, and they 0.97

00:18:23.140 say, teacher, what is the greatest command?

00:18:25.180 And they had this many to choose from.

00:18:27.320 They were trying to trap Jesus, and he responds with the great commandment, Matthew 22, 37.

00:18:31.720 He says, love God with your heart, soul, and mind.

00:18:33.940 Only how Jesus can.

00:18:35.080 He messianizes Shema.

00:18:36.900 There were 613 commands to choose from.

00:18:39.340 Okay, now, he said it so confidently.

00:18:42.460 Like, I want...

00:18:43.060 Because it's closest to that going over, I want to say there's, like, 11.

00:18:45.740 Because then, you know, then if it's 612, then I win. 1.00

00:18:49.620 But he said it so confidently, I want to say he's right.

00:18:55.320 I go with his answer.

00:18:56.600 And the answer is 613.

00:18:58.080 I'm glad I did not even say 612 and a half.

00:19:00.720 Okay, now, there's one bonus question.

00:19:02.640 Professor Jacob writes, DEI final question.

00:19:08.440 How old was Aisha when Muhammad married her?

00:19:11.540 It is 9, right?

00:19:13.920 I think the answer is 9.

00:19:16.280 What's your answer?

00:19:18.720 I'm going to go with 11.

00:19:20.780 11.

00:19:21.820 Okay, so...

00:19:22.980 9-11.

00:19:23.620 Man, that's crazy.

00:19:25.000 Fun...

00:19:31.100 Wow, we actually both got it wrong, though I got it more right. 1.00

00:19:34.940 She was 6, and then he waited until she was 9 to sleep with her.

00:19:39.340 As Professor Jacob writes, what a nice guy.

00:19:40.920 You're going to give me, like, fatwa with this.

00:19:42.700 Don't...

00:19:43.200 I knew 9 was in there.

00:19:44.480 Do I get half credit for that at all?

00:19:46.860 No.

00:19:47.480 I think I got beaten by Jeremiah.

00:19:49.460 Is that right?

00:19:50.240 I'm almost glad we both don't know the answer to that.

00:19:53.540 I know, yes.

00:19:55.000 That's true.

00:19:56.080 Yeah, I'm not...

00:19:57.860 Because then you've got to pick Shiite or Sunni or Wahhab. 0.99

00:20:01.080 I don't know.

00:20:01.540 It's too much.

00:20:02.720 Jeremiah, I know we have this excellent book right here that everyone should order.

00:20:10.000 The Peace of God Bible.

00:20:11.200 Look at this.

00:20:11.740 Very lovely.

00:20:12.820 I mean, one can certainly speak to the content, but also just a lovely edition of the Bible

00:20:17.140 to have.

00:20:18.960 Tell us a little bit about it before I let you go.

00:20:22.400 Absolutely.

00:20:22.860 Michael, that's so kind of you.

00:20:23.800 And that's the one I actually personalized to you.

00:20:25.500 I took four years of my life to study the word shalom.

00:20:28.140 There's 651 occurrences of the word peace in the Bible.

00:20:32.220 I know that because I counted every single one.

00:20:34.960 And I wrote 126,000 words tracing every single place where shalom, peace shows up.

00:20:42.580 It's fascinating where in the Bible it shows up.

00:20:44.780 It's fascinating that it's God's will for every follower of Jesus to walk in his peace.

00:20:49.420 It's not some kind of spiritual gift that only dealt to force Christians like you have, 1.00

00:20:53.360 Michael.

00:20:53.700 But every one of us need to have the peace of God.

00:20:56.280 And so there's daily devotionals, all the book introductions, all the notes are how to

00:21:00.880 help you walk in the peace of God.

00:21:02.280 And it's a message we need now more than ever.

00:21:04.040 So thank you for asking me.

00:21:05.700 So it's so true, too, because even, look, I catch myself with this, too.

00:21:09.120 And I'm a pretty placid guy.

00:21:10.920 But we're in a culture that is given to anxiety.

00:21:14.340 And we're always, we're on stimulants all the time.

00:21:17.000 And, you know, coffee and nicotine.

00:21:19.460 And our phones are probably the biggest stimulant of all.

00:21:21.680 And people are just anxious, you know.

00:21:23.340 And so, you know, it's always important to connect oneself to the peace of God.

00:21:28.500 But now it seems particularly urgent.

00:21:30.600 Anyway, it's available now out from Thomas Nelson, great publisher.

00:21:34.020 And what else are you working?

00:21:35.020 You're always working on like a hundred different things.

00:21:38.100 Well, thanks to our conversation that we had a few months ago on the top discoveries about

00:21:43.220 Jesus, my next book is The Jesus Discoveries.

00:21:46.360 And I've just finished it.

00:21:47.520 It's the top 10 discoveries that bring us face to face with Jesus.

00:21:51.020 And the book isn't even out yet.

00:21:52.480 It's already making global headlines just because so many people are unaware that unlike all

00:21:56.480 these other fake religions, Christianity puts itself to a historical evidential test. 0.84

00:22:03.020 And what's cool about knowing about these discoveries is they bring us face to face with Jesus.

00:22:07.560 They actually build us.

00:22:08.760 And also, I'm acquiring, by the way, from Zurich right now, a gold Tiberius coin.

00:22:14.840 Do you remember, Michael, when Jesus said, give unto Caesar that which is Caesar, give God

00:22:19.420 your life?

00:22:19.860 I'm acquiring that coin right now.

00:22:21.600 So I'm continuing to build my collection.

00:22:23.300 So next time I come back, I'll bring more artifacts.

00:22:25.920 That is cool.

00:22:27.320 I have your statue of the man from the Shroud.

00:22:29.640 I have it in my office.

00:22:30.840 A nice little private place.

00:22:31.900 Okay.

00:22:32.720 Jeremiah, wonderful to be with you as always.

00:22:34.580 Thank you for coming in.

00:22:35.660 Thank you to all of you.

00:22:37.060 I'll see you all tomorrow.

00:22:38.440 I'm Michael Knowles.

00:22:38.920 This is The Michael Knowles Show.
