one hears the word God the image that may come to mind is an individual of supreme power and control‚ unable to be corrupted‚ and one whose intentions are “pure”. In the Iliad the gods are not portrayed in this manner‚ but rather are continuously playing a major role in the war. The Greek Gods are given extreme power over the mortals and use it to instigate‚ further the conflicts during the war‚ and ultimately secure one’s fate. This is evident from the very beginning when the Gods are insulted by humans
