implies that no one held this view. Rather, everyone who affirmed that He is infinite denied that He is above the Throne.

The third argument is as follows: supposing an infinite extension must fall into one of two cases. If it is impossible, then your contention under the third alternative—that empty spatial regions could exist above Him if He were finite in every direction—is invalid. For if spatial extensions must be finite, there need not be any extension above the world, let alone above the Creator. If what you mentioned under the third alternative is assumed—this being one of the two arguments—the first argument is negated, namely, that everything of a determinate magnitude must have come into existence. This has already been discussed sufficiently. Once both arguments are invalidated, your case against the third alternative is invalidated. If, however, supposing an infinite extension is possible, then the first alternative is established as possible, and your argument for its impossibility is invalidated. Thus, on either supposition, what you have presented is not a sound proof.

The fourth argument is that, although we know of no one who holds the second alternative—that He is infinite in some directions and finite in all the others—you have offered no proof refuting it, nor have you argued for
