Not Required Reading

James Morrison, review of Richard A. Burridge, What are the Gospels? A Comparison with Graeco-Roman Biography (Grand Rapids: William B. Eerdmans Pub. Co., 2004), in Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2005.05.31:
It is possible to receive a Ph.D. in Classics today without ever having read the New Testament in Greek.
G.P. Goold, "Richard Bentley: A Tercentenary Commemoration," Harvard Studies in Classical Philology 67 (1963) 285-302 (at 296):
The greatest book written in Greek is the New Testament, though a Chinese who studied Greek in the classics departments of Occidental universities might well become an old man without ever discovering the fact.
