In wikipedia it says: "Thermal equilibrium is a theoretical physical concept, used especially in theoretical texts, that means that all temperatures of interest are unchanging in time and uniform in space."
But isn't temperature defined because of the thermal equilibrium concept? It's defined because of the zeroth law, and the zeroth law uses thermal equilibrium concept.
