Ancient Greece did, in fact, come before the birth of Jesus Christ. That is, its origins and early development, its Classical Period, its dissemination in the Hellenistic Period, and then its decline in the 2nd century B.C.E. -- all occurred before Christ's birth during the early years of the Roman Empire.
