I found this on a blog some days ago; I don't remember where, but it might work as a test for Philo-scholars also as most of us are dealing with the New Testament too?
Have a nice weekend..
10 ways to determine if you're a NT buff
1. Whenever you listen to a sermon on the NT you always wonder what commentaries the preacher used.
2. The back of your toilet door has Greek verb paradigms engraved on it from your seminary days.
3. Your outdated copy of BAGD is now on the coffee table for visitors to browse over.
4. Amazon.com rates you as one of their top 1000 book buyers.
5. You keep mistaking v's for n's.
6. When lay people ask you what your research interests are and you tell them, they always ask "What's the point of studying that?"
7. When your husband/wife asks you what you want for your birthday/Christmas/mother's/Father's day - you always ask for a book.
8. When you read a passage out of Matthew you wonder if the passage derived from Mark, Q or 'M'.
9. You lay awake at night wondering how best to explain the "parting of the ways" between Judaism and Christianity.
10. The most heinous insult you have ever experienced is when someone mistook you for an Old Testament scholar.

How many scores did you get? (-:
