They are purelydependent upon the constitution and influence of the stars. Then thereis the more special providence of the Jewish nation, then of the malemembers of this nation, and of the priests and the levites. Finallycomes the special providence of the individual, who is rewarded andpunished according to his conduct. The reward and punishment of thisworld are not strictly controlled by conduct, the reward and punishmentof the next world are. In this last remark Crescas cuts the knot whichha...s been the cause of so much discussion in religious philosophy. If thereal reward and punishment are in the next world, the prosperity of thewicked and the adversity of the righteous in this world do not form sogreat a problem. At the same time an explanation of this peculiarphenomenon is still wanting. For surely the righteous man does notdeserve to _suffer_ for his righteousness, even though his good deedswill not go unrewarded in the next world. In this discussion alsoCrescas takes issue with the intellectualistic point of view ofMaimonides and particularly Gersonides.
