Real necessity, as far as Humeans are concerned, resides only in ‘relations of ideas’; 2 + 2 = 4 is necessary only because its truth is contained in the meanings of the ideas involved. Similarly, we can say that if today is Wednesday, tomorrow has to be Thursday. But the necessity of this truth is entirely in the words. There is no worldly necessity compelling the future.
