25 Comprehensive Revelation 11 Quiz Questions and Answers

Answer 1: B: The voices declared that the kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord and of his Christ. Distractor A is a trap drawn from Daniel 7:27, where the kingdom is given to the saints of the most High, a passage close in spirit but not what the voices here say.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:15, “The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.”

Answer 2: A: The two witnesses were to prophesy for a thousand two hundred and threescore days, which is 1260. Distractors C, D, and E name prophetic numbers from Daniel that a student of end-times chronology might substitute in error.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:3, “And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days.”

Answer 3: D: The great city was spiritually called Sodom and Egypt. Every distractor pairs names of biblical cities or regions associated with judgment, but none is the combination the text gives for this city.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:8, “the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt.”

Answer 4: C: The two witnesses are identified as the two olive trees and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. This imagery draws directly on Zechariah 4, where olive trees and a lampstand represent anointed ministry before God.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:4, “These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.”

Answer 5: E: Seven thousand men were slain in the earthquake. Distractor C (twelve thousand) echoes the number sealed from each tribe in chapter seven. The compound D, A and B) fails because both A (three thousand) and B (ten thousand) are false, and no such pair is named in the text.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:13, “and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand.”

Answer 6: B: They had power over waters to turn them to blood. Distractor C (part them in two) echoes Moses at the Red Sea and Elijah at the Jordan, making it a plausible cross-reference trap from elsewhere in the biblical narrative.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:6, “and have power over waters to turn them to blood.”

Answer 7: A: The holy city was to be trodden under foot forty and two months. This is the same duration as the witnesses’ 1260 days of prophesying, confirming the parallel structure of the two halves of chapter eleven.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:2, “the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.”

Answer 8: C: Fire proceeded out of their mouth and devoured their enemies. Distractor E (hail) is from chapter eleven itself, appearing in verse nineteen among the phenomena at the temple’s opening, making it a content-close trap from the same chapter.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:5, “fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies.”

Answer 9: D: The bodies lay unburied for three days and a half. Every distractor uses the same “days and a half” format, requiring the student to know the precise figure rather than recognising the pattern alone.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:9, “And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and a half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.”

Answer 10: B: The Spirit of life from God entered into them and they stood upon their feet. Distractor A (the glory of God) echoes Ezekiel and the filling of the tabernacle but is not what the verse says entered the witnesses.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:11, “And after three days and a half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet.”

Answer 11: E: The elders addressed him as Lord God Almighty. Distractor D (Ancient of Days) is drawn from Daniel 7 and describes the same being in a different prophetic context, making it a plausible cross-book trap.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:17, “We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come.”

Answer 12: A: John was given a reed like unto a rod. Distractor C (a rod) is the primary trap because the text uses “rod” as the comparison, not as the name of the instrument given. A student who reads hastily may recall “rod” and select C.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:1, “And there was given me a reed like unto a rod.”

Answer 13: C: The beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit overcame and killed them. Distractor B (the angel of the abyss) is drawn from chapter nine, where Abaddon rules the locust army. The two figures are associated with the same pit but are distinct in the text.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:7, “the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.”

Answer 14: D: They ascended up to heaven in a cloud. Distractor A (rose into the sky) is close in meaning but omits the cloud, which is the specific detail the verse provides. The cloud echoes Christ’s ascension in Acts 1:9.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:12, “And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.”

Answer 15: B: The tenth part of the city fell. Distractor C (it shook) is the sharpest trap, because the city shook in the earthquake, but the text specifically says the tenth part fell, not merely shook. The distinction requires knowing both the cause and the result.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:13, “the tenth part of the city fell.”

Answer 16: C: The ark of his testament was seen in the temple. Distractor B (the altar of gold) is drawn from chapter nine, verse thirteen, where a voice came from the golden altar. Both are temple furnishings in Revelation, making B a plausible but incorrect answer.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:19, “and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament.”

Answer 17: A: The court which is without the temple was left out and not measured. Distractor C (the holy altar) is the sharpest trap because John WAS told to measure the altar in the same passage. A student who recalls “altar” from verse one may wrongly conclude it was excluded.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:2, “But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not.”

Answer 18: E: They had power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy. This echoes Elijah’s prayer in 1 Kings 17, when rain was withheld for three and a half years, the same duration as the witnesses’ ministry.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:6, “These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy.”

Answer 19: B: The four and twenty elders fell upon their faces and worshipped God. Distractor C (cast down their crowns) is drawn from chapter four, where the elders cast their crowns before the throne. Both actions belong to the same twenty-four elders in Revelation, making C a strong cross-chapter trap.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:16, “the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God.”

Answer 20: D: The second woe is past. Distractor B (the third woe) names what was still to come, as verse fourteen says the third woe cometh quickly. A student who confuses what was past with what was next will pick B.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:14, “The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.”

Answer 21: C: Both A and B are verifiably true from verse nineteen. Lightnings and voices occurred, and so did thunderings and an earthquake, along with great hail. D (a river of water) and E (a pillar of smoke) do not appear in the text, making A and B together the only fully accurate compound.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:19, “and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.”

Answer 22: A: The earth dwellers rejoiced over the witnesses and made merry and sent gifts to one another. The two witnesses had tormented those who dwell on the earth, so their deaths were met with celebration rather than mourning.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:10, “And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another.”

Answer 23: B: They prophesied clothed in sackcloth. Sackcloth is the garment of mourning and repentance throughout scripture. Distractor D (purple) is the garment of royalty and of the harlot in chapter seventeen, drawing a deliberate contrast with the witnesses’ self-denying ministry.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:3, “and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.”

Answer 24: E: The voice said “Come up hither.” These same words were spoken to John in chapter four, verse one, at the opening of the heavenly throne vision, making D (fear thou not) and C (come forth now) plausible but incorrect substitutions from elsewhere in Revelation.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:12, “And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither.”

Answer 25: D: The time of the dead, that they should be judged, had come. Distractor E (the harvest) echoes Revelation 14:15, where the hour has come to reap, but that is a separate vision and is not what the elders declare here.
KJV Reference: Revelation 11:18, “the time of the dead, that they should be judged.”
