For Pete's sake, does Feser not distinguish between matter and substances? It doesn't sound like he is. Matter in Aristotle is Primal Matter. Substances are the composite forms. For example, wood is a substance, stone is a substance, water is a substance, even a person is a substance, but in the end they're all made of 'matter'. (plus form)
