Theorem dedth 3704

Description: Weak deduction theorem that eliminates a hypothesis ph, making it become an antecedent. We assume that a proof exists for ph when the class variable A is replaced with a specific class B. The hypothesis ch should be assigned to the inference, and the inference's hypothesis eliminated with elimhyp 3711. If the inference has other hypotheses with class variable A, these can be kept by assigning keephyp 3717 to them. For more information, see the Deduction Theorem https://us.metamath.org/mpeuni/mmdeduction.html 3717. (Contributed by NM, 15-May-1999.)
