Its relation to objects in space gives us the conception of connection (commercium) with bodies.

 For, if they decide for the first view, and make space and time into substances, this being the side taken by mathematical natural philosophers, they must admit two self-subsisting nonentities, infinite and eternal, which exist (yet without there being anything real) for the purpose of containing in themselves everything that is real. 
But this very synthetical unity remains, even when I abstract the form of space, and has its seat in the understanding, and is in fact the category of the synthesis of the homogeneous in an intuition; that is to say, the category of quantity, to which the aforesaid synthesis of apprehension, that is, the perception, must be completely conformable.*
 Well, now YOU CAN: But things in space and time are given only in so far as they are perceptions (representations accompanied with sensation), therefore only by empirical representation. It certainly seems that, as a body must be cogitated as substance in space, the law of divisibility would not be applicable to it as substance.
