摘　　要：《墨经》在中国古代科技思想史上具有重要地位,其中"兼"、"体"概念及其关系的科学性是学界论争的焦点之一。文章认为,"兼"、"体"关系与"区穴"、"尺"、"端"诸概念及"盈"、"撄"、"仳"、"次"、"间"、"坚白"等若干物体组合方式密切相关;通过各种组合,"兼"可分为"体","体"可合为"兼"而不破坏"体"的内部结构,这既是墨家对"石"构成的一种解释,也开启了坚白、同异的论争话题。In chapter 40 The Canon（1） and chapter 42 Exposition of The Canon（1） from the book of Mozi（Mo-tzu）,the notions of the object and its parts-the Whole[兼],the Portion[体],the Visible part,the Sector[尺] and the Cusp[端]-have close relations with the notions of combinations-the Brimfulness[盈],the Mate[撄],the Splice[仳],the Overlapping[次],the Interspace[间],and the Firmness ＆ whiteness.According to the Mohism’s hypothesis,through different mode of combinations,the Whole could be separated into Portions and Portions could be combined into the Whole,while the inner constitution will not be destroyed.This hypothesis has caused debates about Firmness white,and Similarities ＆ differences with Sophists too.
