In the Old Testament, the phrase “City of David” is used to refer to Jerusalem 45 times, but in the New Testament, it is found twice-and it refers to Bethlehem, where David was born. The New Testament is often regarded as the Bible ... so the question was ambiguous.

That’s strange. People generally think that Jesus was born in a stable in Bethlehem. Are the Christmas Carols misleading us when they describe the birth of Jesus… as in “O Little Town of Bethlehem”? Also “ For unto you a child is born in the city of David”. Putting these two carols together logic seems to tell us that the city of David and Bethlehem are the same place. Is the town Bethlehem in the city of Jerusalem?

Bethlehem is known as the City of David because he was born there. This is an important distinction made in Christianity because it points to Christ being of the Line of David. In the Old Testament reference in made in 1 Chronicles and 1 Kings that an area of Jerusalem was also known as the City of David. David took the Fortress of Mount Zion from the Jebusites...1 Chronicles 11:7. "And David dwelt in the castle, and therefore it was called the city of David." David restored the Mount of Zion and Joab restored the rest of Jerusalem as a reward for killing the first Jebusite. Jerusalem is also marked as the City of David in 1 Kings 3:1 and 8:1. The exact location of the City of David was lost for centuries after the Roman destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. It has since been located on the southwest side of Jerusalem, opposite the Temple Mount, with which it was connected by a bridge over the Tyropoeon valley. .

Multiple-choice tests had their origin in World War I, when Dr. Robert Yerkes2, President of the American Psychological Association (APA), convinced the Army to commission them to test the intelligence of recruits.3,4 The Army's goal was to improve the efficiency of evaluating men by moving away from time-consuming written and oral examinations. Yerkes' motives were to make psychiatry a more scientific field and move it away from its affiliation with philosophy. A total of 1.7 million recruits were tested, giving the multiple-choice test an air of legitimacy, but in the end, the Army found no value in the results. Yerkes omitted that part of the story when he sold this idea to educational testing outfits. The validity of the test was not questioned. The rest is an unfortunate history.
