Suniti Chandra Mishra

I am involved in writing poems, novels, stories and other useful books since my early youth. After graduating from Mithila University (India), I adopted a career as a language teacher and served at several schools. I further served as Office Secretary of the Continental Board of Baha’i Counsellors in Asia (Gwalior office) where I was responsible for independently handling correspondence with Baha’i and non-Baha’i international institutions and developing study materials. I also served, during the same time, on the Translation & Review Committee of the National Spiritual Assembly of the Baha’is of India and translated a number of books including the Most Holy Book of the Baha’i Faith (by Baha’u’llah), Covenant (by Lowell Johnson), The Bab – The Herald of the Day of Days (H.M. Balyuji) among others.I am presently collaborating with a number of reputed translation agencies of India and abroad as a freelance writer and translator and have served in that capacity scores of international clients and companies of Australia, Canada, India, UK and USA. My books “Did I Exist Before ....?” published by Pustak Mahal (www.pustakmahal.com) and “A Writer’s Manual” published by V&S Publishers, New Delhi, are carving out a niche in the market.

    Author’s Foreword

    We are now ushered into the century of light. The horizons of knowledge were never expanded so wide before this time. Every moment something new is happening, every instant a novel mystery is revealing itself. Since knowledge is the most substantial power of this new era, the one who knows a lot is the most powerful, the most successful today.

    But there is a unique aspect of knowledge – IT CANNOT BE IMPOSED. You cannot teach anyone until and unless he or she himself (or herself) is willing to acquire knowledge. Unawareness of this psychological truth has prevented parents, teachers and educationists from effectively equipping children and youth with this miraculous power of knowledge. Our entire system of imparting knowledge has been based on a ‘forceful’ attitude. We want to feed children and youth with lots of information. We want to inject into their system all that we want them to know. This has resulted in heavy bags our children are daily carrying to their schools and the life-threatening tension and depression our students are coping with.

    Everyone needs to be ‘encouraged --and not ‘forced’-- to learn. Knowledge should be ‘facilitated’ and not ‘imposed’. We cannot eliminate text-books and we also cannot take our educational system a hundred years back, but we can instill in our children and youth a self-propelled yearning for knowledge. This book and other books to follow in this sequence of SCM QUIZ WIZ series effectively serve this purpose.

    I am delighted to place in your hands the SECOND book of SCM QUIZ WIZ series – THE GREAT BIBLE QUIZ (Part 1) which covers the texts of the Old Testament till the time of King David. The Holy Bible is one of the most influential and widely read books of the world. In addition, this great Book reveals to us the infallible guidance of God, His priceless teachings for the humankind and relates the stories of a number of extraordinary figures who still inspire us with moral values, courage, patience, forbearance and spiritual qualities.

    This book will not only serve as a barometer to test the reader’s knowledge about the Bible but also urge him or her to read this great scripture more and more and marvel at the treasure of knowledge and mysteries it enshrines. The intelligently selected quizzes – assorted in 6 Sections and mostly based on stories than on details – are ideal for children and youth who are less familiar with the contents of the Holy Book, but they are equally interesting for grown-up readers who would like to refresh their knowledge of the Bible. So, come and let’s find how much we know about this Great Book!

    Wish you a happy quiz time!

    What the Bible is all about?

    The Bible, together with the Quran (Koran) and other great scriptures of the world, is among the most widely read Books of the world. According to rough estimates, nearly five billion copies of the Bible are sold till now. Every year, some one hundred million copies of the Bible are sold, read or distributed. The more striking thing is that both - the Bible and the Quran – tell us almost the same stories, about the same people and Messengers of God, with slight differences in the names. For example, Abraham of the Bible becomes ‘Ibrahim’ in the Quran, David becomes ‘Dawud’, Elijah is ‘Ilyas’, Jacob is ‘Yaqub’, Solomon is ‘Sulayman’ … and so on. The Bible and the Quran both believe in ‘One God’, both admit Adam and Eve as the first man and the first woman respectively, and base their accounts on the Abrahamic tradition. With these major similarities, this book, for the most part, becomes useful for both the readers – those who want to explore the facts of the Bible and those whose prime interest
