The document discusses the role of gods in Oedipus Rex. It explains that the ancient Greeks believed in many gods who ruled over different domains and could punish humans for exceeding their limits. Specifically, Apollo was associated with prophecy and ordered the Thebans to kill or exile the polluted man. The chorus represents the community's view that religion is failing since prophecies are not being fulfilled. Ultimately, the document argues that Sophocles intended to show how the gods' plan and mechanisms caused the tragic events in the play to unfold despite humans' free will.Greek Flower Myths

The gods in Homer's Iliad have some connections to mortals but are ultimately immortal beings who do not experience the world in the same way as humans. While the gods can show favoritism and intervene on behalf of certain mortals, they ultimately view humans as trivial and are more concerned with their own immortal concerns like feasting and sacrifices from humans. The gods also have allegiances in the Trojan War based on past events, with Hera, Athena and Poseidon opposed to the Trojans while Apollo, Aphrodite and Ares support them, and Zeus, Hephaestus and Hades remaining more neutral but still intervening on occasion.Questionnaire
