Questions People Ask in the Bible

The Bible contains 3,298 questions: 1,024 in the New Testament and 2,274 in the Old Testament. Making biblical questions and their answers adaptable to all is the work of the Holy Spirit. Spurgeon asserts, "No Scripture is of private interpretation: no text has spent itself upon the person who first received it. God's comforts are like wells, which no one man or set of men can drain dry, however mighty their thirst. A well may be opened for Hagar, but it is never closed, and any other wanderer may drink at it." With that in mind, put yourself in the shoes of a question's original recipient and claim it and its answer personally for the enrichment and edification of your soul.

Questions People Ask in the Bible and its companion, Questions God Ask in the Bible, each contain 100 questions and answers that edify, encourage, and equip the saint and invite the lost to trust Christ.
