Though this cause.... it nevertheless...

[sakya kim]

''Though this kammic cause is in time followed by its result, it nevertheless may depend on (but not be produced by) a preceding kamma-result as its inducement condition. < ----- >

in this first sentence, does the word ''nevertheless'' really need here? because this sentence began with ''though''. I'm so confused.
< Second question has its own thread. Cagey, moderator >

Thanks to All...

It's not absolutely necessary. It merely emphasizes the contrast.
