As a representative of the so-called. The "second" generation of Antiochian exegetes, together with Diodorus of Tarsus and John Chrysostom, established the historical method of interpreting the Holy Scriptures as dominant in the Christian universe. His methodology is based on pure historicism, with barely noticeable traces of any use of Alexandrian allegory. His methods of interpretation directly influenced the emphasis of the representatives of the third generation of Antiochian exegetes, embodied in Theodoret of Cyrus and Nestorius. Antiochian strict historicism of Mopsuestian will indirectly lead to Nestorian heresy and indirect emphasis on Alexandrian allegory as an exegetical counterweight to Antiochian exegesis.
