This is the rather ^ Haruack.
230 ORIGEN AND GREEK THEOLOGY inappropriate name given to the ancient Christian eschatology, from the circumstance tliat one of its tenets was the doctrine of the millennium. It embraced, however, many other features, of which some were fixed, and some were being continually modified. Of the latter sort were the ideas about the Antichrist, and about the place, extent, and duration of Christ's glorious kingdom. After the decay of Montanism, Chiliastic views lost cas...te, so to speak, and were de- nounced as Jewish ; and the early Christian hope with respect to the future was gradually undermined by the speculative mysticism of the Alexandrians.
Such were the main currents of contro\cisy in which the Greek theology took shape, and such tlie conditions amid which it rendered eficctive and lasting service to Christianity. A few words will suffice to indicate its more general characteristics. As we have already seen, it overdid the use of allegory in the interpretation of Scripture, and made it easy to discount the conclusions arrived at by any other sort of exposition.
