Jeopardy! Contestants Stumped by The Lord’s Prayer

Jeopardy! is known for its difficult clues that put even the most astute minds to the test, but in a recent episode, players were caught off guard when they found an apparently simple clue about the Lord’s Prayer. Many Christian observers at home were riveted by this unexpected occurrence.

Presenter Mayim Bialik gave a $200 hint in the “Dadjectives” category on June 13. Matthew 6:9 states, “Our Father Who Art in Heaven, This ‘Be Thy Name.'” This was the hint. The right answer, for those who know the Lord’s Prayer, ought to have been “hallowed.” Nevertheless, none of the three competitors could give the right response, which surprised the crowd.

Twitter was ablaze with commentary on this unexpected development. Concerns regarding Americans’ lack of religious knowledge or faith were reflected in some users’ disbelief that none of the competitors knew the answer. Some laughed at the circumstance, telling tales of small children who knew the solution with ease.

Even while Jeopardy! covers a wide range of subjects, including the Bible and Christianity, and its competitors come from a variety of backgrounds, many players were surprised that they couldn’t correctly answer such a well-known question.

The competitors demonstrated their strengths in other areas despite this gaffe. Suresh Krishnan extended his winning streak to six games in the Final Jeopardy round when he correctly recognized John Travolta as the star of Saturday Night Fever and Grease.
