Plato's Chora and Newton's Absolute Space do seem comparable. And the efficient cause is comparable to Ayn Sof.
IMHO, many have perceived the cosmos in terms of infinity (no boundaries) whereas the void of cosmology is null. There is no space or time or physical causation in the void.
Got a question.. If space is null, empty.. then what is it.. it has to be something.. even nothing is something.. What is it?.. How can empty space be nothing at all.?. maybe its the same stuff thats between "atoms".?. That is if there even a thing called atoms..
