I believe that apart of literary discussions of after life, and of course, the great "bone prophecy" of Ezekiel, traditional Judaism is devoid of compensation in the after life for good (Garden of Eden) or for Evil (Hell). There is a later concept of "Haolam a ba", the next world, and indeed, it is "reserved" to the righteous, but it is not necessarily an "all bliss" or seventy two virgins type of "heavens", and was really developed much later in post Temple Judaism (IMHO, as influenced from Christianity), furthermore, while the "evil one", or the unrepentant, do not get to that "next world", they definitely do not burn in the fires of hell, just are no longer in existence. Hell as Christianity understands it is not even in current Judaism (any), and was not in the past. Judaism does not have the concept of "Satan" either (even though, the world Satan is derived from Hebrew and has sinister connotations). In Judaism, God is both the good and the evil all in one, though he likes to send the angel of darkness to do his evil work (see Job for instance....). As for sin, it is quite interesting, it one place in the Torah, it states quite clearly that the responsibility of good behavior is personal and punishment is in this world (each man will die by his own sin), yet in two other places, he bears the sin of fathers on their sons and the sons of their sons etc. (one of the passages in the Torah which are immoral, IMHO, and I cannot accept and have not accepted).
