Happy Tuesday! Today is Day 7 of Bill Whitaker hosting; thus far, $161,599 has been donated by Jeopardy! to Media Fellowship House. Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Books of the Bible) for Tuesday, May 11, 2021 (Season 37, Game 162):
Its last chapter includes wisdom from King Lemuel, taught to him by his mother, as well as the famous “Virtuous Woman” passage
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Lara Phillips, a librarian from Portland, Oregon
Jeff Mitchum, a teacher from Dixon, California
Juliet Mayer, a graduate student originally from The Plains, Virginia (2-day total: $53,200)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: Juliet put up one of the strongest Double Jeopardy! rounds in recent memory yesterday en route to a Coryat score of over $25,000. If she can keep that up—she’s also had zero unforced errors (being incorrect after a buzz-in) through two games—game #3 could be very similar to game #2.
PSA: The best way to keep COVID-19 at bay (and keep Jeopardy! producing new episodes) is for everybody to get their vaccinations as soon as they are able to. When wearing a mask, ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

Correct response: What is Proverbs?
More information about Final Jeopardy: (The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2021 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
Proverbs 31 opens with “The words of King Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him”. Essentially, it suggests that wine “is not for kings”, “lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted”.
The “Virtuous Woman” passage can be found at Proverbs 31:10-31.
I feel as though that this is the type of Final Jeopardy! that will play easier for a certain subset of home viewer (the subset that will then come online to be upset about the lack of Biblical knowledge of the contestants). My personal viewpoint on the matter, as someone who has never been to a church service that was not a wedding or a funeral, is that the Bible is inspiration for so much of Western literature and art that Jeopardy! needs to have it as part of its canon in some fashion. Sports fans and movie fans would be upset if there were no longer any sports or movie Final Jeopardy! clues; this is really no different.
