In Plato's Timaeus (28b–29a) the character of Timeaus insisted that the cosmos was not eternal but was created, although its creator framed it after an eternal, unchanging model.
U Timaju (28b - 29a) Platon kaže da Svemir nije vječan, već da je nastao, premda ga je stvoritelj (demijurg) oblikovao prema vječnom i nepromjenljivom uzoru.
