"The world is a finite body, and therefore has finite power." John Philoponus is remembered
for using this Aristotelian premise to break ranks with Aristotle and argue that the
world is not everlasting. This investigation reconsiders Philoponus's arguments from
finite power, and then explores the aftermath of this line of thinking in the works
of three lesser-known Arabic intellectuals active in the generation before Avicenna
(d. 1037): Abū l-Ḫayr Ibn Suwār (d. after 1017), Abū al-Ḥasan al-ʻĀmirī (d.
992), and Abū Sahl al-Masīḥī (d. after 1025). Each engaged with this dictum in
unique and novel ways, and in so doing anticipated a number of central features of
Avicenna's writings. The history of this argument is of crucial importance for understanding
the evolution of natural philosophy and metaphysics in this formative period, away
from tedious and simplistic arguments about creation and towards a more robust modal
ontology based on intrinsic and extrinsic necessity
