Theorem bnd 3925

Description: A very strong generalization of the Axiom of Replacement (compare zfrep6 3874). Its strength lies in the rather profound fact that ph ( x , y ) does not have to be a "function-like" wff, as it does in the standard Axiom of Replacement. This theorem is sometimes called the Boundedness Axiom. In the context of IZF, it is just a slight variation of ax-coll 3872. (Contributed by NM, 17-Oct-2004.)
