Disclaimer: This comes from the FFRF (Freedom from Religion Foundation), so of course you know there's a bias. But the questions are still textually accurate, whether you agree with the FFRF or not. You may disagree with their interpretations when you go to read the answers, but they're still only using the words that are really there.

ADDENDUM: I just discovered a post discussing the very idea of reading the actual words that are there vs. "interpreting" them.

I got 42/50,

Several questions were from Leviticus, and if "Stone him/her/them to death" is a choice, it is always correct.

Yeah, I noticed that. A few I knew; a few I guessed on based on the pattern.

I got 44/50. I take issue with the statement that it's just the exact words of the test; in more than one place it has a paraphrase in quotes. There were some where I disagreed with the answers but got them right because I knew what passage was being referenced and what they were getting at.

LOL. ^/^ And yet, it's still a translation, is it not?
