This Element defends a version of the classical theory of divine ideas; the containment exemplarist theory. This holds that God's own nature is the examplar of all possible creation, so God's ideas are ideas of himself. Containment exemplarism offers a montheism fit for metaphysics, as it is coherent, simple and explanatorily powerful.
