Глава XXXVIII. О том, что находится в другом

Machine translation from the original · Show original
What is in another is in him in eleven different ways: 1) As a genus in a species, for example, an animal in the definition of a person. 2) As a species in a genus - for example, a person in the division of an animal. 3) In the sense of place - for example, a priest in a church. 4) In the sense of time - for example, Noah during the flood. 5) In the sense of a vessel, for example, wine in a bowl. 6) As a whole in parts - for example, Socrates in his members: head, arms, legs. However, the whole here is not in another, but in others. 7) As a part as a whole - for example, the head, the hand in Socrates. 8) As a form in a substance, - for example, the form of a statue in copper. 9) As in the producing cause - for example, everything is in God. 10) As in the final cause, for example, a bed in the rest of people, for for the sake of this rest the bed is prepared. 11) As in the main substrate, for example, underwear on the body. You should know that “parts of the whole” are said, “the whole is parts” never, but “the whole is in parts.” You might be interested in:
