Toland re-plied in his Amyntor, or a Defence of Milton's Life (1699), to which he added a remarkable list of what are now called apocryphal New Testament writings.
The next year his Amyntor and Christianity not Mysterious were under discussion in both houses of Convocation, and the Upper House declined to proceed against the author.
After his Christianity not Mysterious and his Amyntor, Toland's Nazarenus was of chief importance, as calling attention to the right of the Ebionites to a place in the early church, though it altogether failed to establish his main argument or to put the question in the true light.

 [EMLS 11.3 (January, 2006):5.1-20] Another Look at ‘Amyntor’s Grove’: Pastoral and Patronage in Lovelace’s Poem
[16]  ‘Amyntor’s Grove’ refers to the portraits the poet is shown in religious terms, as if they were enshrined saints, but those privileged enough to view Royal portraits were aware that they served as propaganda, ‘mending nature’ as Lovelace observes, with flattering physical depictions.
Lovelace’s Amyntor derives from the Theocritan Amyntas and from Tasso’s Amintas.
Amyntor is isolated.  The landscape is on the walls; the court has shrunk to a gallery.  The portraits on the walls provide ‘Livelier, nobler Company, / Then if they could or speake, or see’.

 Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2000.12.13
Fathers love their sons, but there is competition and sometimes violence (e.g., Hephaestus and Zeus (I.571-94), Phoenix and Amyntor (IX.944-95)).
Yet, even "good" sons are harmed by this system, since the ultimate expression of filial piety (worthiness to become the father) is to die for one's father, as Hector does for Priam.
After Amyntor's subsequent curse of childlessness, Phoenix contemplated patricide, before fleeing to Phthia where Peleus and Achilles became Phoenix' surrogate father and son.

Tolands next work of importance was his Life of Milton (1698), in which a reference to the numerous supposititious pieces under the name of Christ and His apostles and other great persons, provoked the charge that he had called in question the genuineness of the New Testament writings.
Toland replied in his Amyntor, or a Defence of Miltons Life (1699), to which he added a remarkable list of what are now called apocryphal New Testament writings.
His Pantheisticen, sive formula celebrandae sodalitatis socraticae, of which he printed a few copies for private circulation only, gave great offence as a sort of liturgic ervice made up of passages from heathen authors, in imitation of he Church of England liturgy.

According to a document that is included in Arrian of Nicomedia's Indikê (quoted here), Hephaestion was born in the capital of ancient Macedonia, Pella.
