| I once made a remark about the hidden books of the Bible. It was a lulu,
kept
Mark, Luke
| people looking so hard for facts…and for others it was a revelation. Some
were
Kings, Acts, Revelation
| in a jam, especially since the names of the books were not capitalized.
But
James
| the truth finally struck home to numbers of our readers. To others, it
was a
Ruth, Numbers
| real job. We want it to be a most fascinating few moments for you. Yes,
there
Job, Amos, Esther
| will be some really easy ones to spot. Others may require judges to help
them.
Judges
| I will quickly admit it usually takes a minister to find one of them, and
Titus
| there will be loud lamentations when it is found. A little lady says she
brews
Lamentations, Hebrews
| a cup of tea so she can concentrate better. See how well you compete.
Relax
Peter
| now, for there really are sixteen names of books of the Bible in this
| paragraph.
