Classical scholars disagreed about place. Some understood it through a dimension associated with occupied space, some theologians described it as an imagined dimension, and an Aristotelian account identified place with the inner surface of the containing body.
These differ on whether place is treated as a dimension, a conceptual relation or the boundary of a containing object.
The theological denial of divine location is not tied to proving a single historical physical theory. Its shared purpose is to reject bodily, dimensional dependence in God.
