 Aristotle mentioned Zeus in Phys. II.8, 198b10–32 but to deny that he produced rain in order that crops grow; rain happens out of necessity. Since Averroes read God instead of Zeus in the Arabic translation available to him (Ṭabīʻa [1964: 144:  3])[5],  and he also used the word in his comment on the first passage (LC 76H–77B TC76), it is remarkable that he did not see divine providence assailed by that claim. Averroes saw no difficulty in Nature acting here with purpose, and he placed God in a rank higher than just making rain fall. For him God acts as final cause and the order of Nature reveals the presence of His intelligence.
