1 I, 3 | this body can have been generated. And if it is exempt from 2 I, 10| heaven is ungenerated or generated, indestructible or destructible. 3 I, 10| dispute.~That the world was generated all are agreed, but, generation 4 I, 10| Now to assert that it was generated and yet is eternal is to 5 I, 10| facts point the other way: generated things are seen always to 6 I, 10| indestructible, was yet generated, try to support their case 7 I, 10| cannot be at once eternal and generated.~To say that the universe 8 I, 10| when from a child a man is generated, and from a man a child. 9 I, 10| should be, as a whole, first generated and then destroyed, never 10 I, 10| never change if it was never generated. If, on the other hand, 11 I, 10| be destroyed and for the generated to persist undestroyed. ( 12 I, 10| the heaven, though it was generated, will none the less exist 13 I, 11| words "ungenerated" and "generated", "destructible" and "indestructible". 14 I, 11| In the same way the word "generated" is used, (a) first, where 15 I, 11| for that which cannot be generated, in such fashion that, while 16 I, 12| ungenerated, since if it was generated it will have the power for 17 I, 12| formerly not having been is generated. But in the case of that 18 I, 12| Nor, similarly, can it be generated. For of two attributes if 19 I, 12| being, cannot possibly be generated. But since the contradictory 20 I, 12| always is not is either generated or destructible. And clearly 21 I, 12| And clearly whatever is generated or destructible is not eternal. 22 I, 12| is destructible must be generated; for it is either ungenerated, 23 I, 12| is either ungenerated, or generated, but, if ungenerated, it 24 I, 12| indestructible. Whatever, further, is generated must be destructible. For 25 I, 12| following reasons. The terms "generated" and "destructible" are 26 I, 12| that intermediate is the generated and destructible. For whatever 27 I, 12| Anything therefore which is generated or destructible must be 28 I, 12| which always is not, C the generated, and D the destructible. 29 I, 12| not or B is. But for the generated there must be such a time 30 I, 12| Therefore each is both generated and destructible. Therefore " 31 I, 12| destructible. Therefore "generated" and "destructible" are 32 I, 12| the ungenerated, F for the generated, G for the indestructible, 33 I, 12| the ungenerated (E) to the generated (F) is the same as that 34 I, 12| why anything should not be generated and yet indestructible or 35 I, 12| infinity of not being, was it generated, at one moment rather than 36 I, 12| number, it is clear that a generated or destructible thing existed 37 I, 12| time before destruction, if generated, in the time after generation. 38 I, 12| it was capable of being generated. At that time, then, when 39 I, 12| generable, similarly, has been generated, for it is capable of having 40 I, 12| is capable of having been generated and thus also of not always 41 I, 12| either for a thing which is generated to be thenceforward indestructible, 42 I, 12| Whatever is destructible or generated is always alterable. Now 43 II, 14| impulse.~If the earth was generated, then, it must have been 44 III, 1 | Nothing that is, they said, is generated or destroyed, and our conviction 45 III, 1 | ungenerated, but that after being generated some things remained indestructible 46 III, 1 | was that all else has been generated and, as they said, "is flowing 47 III, 2 | that everything should be generated, unless an extra-corporeal 48 III, 2 | possible for one body to be generated out of another, air for 49 III, 3 | two bodies all others are generated.
