The History of Philosophy Without Any Gaps

Razi says that God creates the world with the help of what he calls the soul in empty space. Or actually, he calls it place. And he says that this kind of empty place is like the vessel into which God puts the world. But then he was trying to say with the empty vessel example that for all we know, there could be void outside the cosmos or whatever is conceivable. So you can't have void inside bodies, as it were, like little bits of void, but you could have lots and lots of void if you wanted, like emptiness. Razi stands at the end of this whole tradition that I'm interested in.
