However, he does allow the story to even occur when Athena, the goddess of wisdom, asks for permission to help Odysseus. Had he not allowed her to, Athena would not have been able to guide Telemachus to find his father.]]> 2017-12-15 21:19:39 UTC https://padlet.com/lvnguyen107/period5lucasyemily/wish/216634426 etran112 https://padlet.com/lvnguyen107/period5lucasyemily/wish/216635324 Also known as the universe's presiding deity, Zeus was regarded by Greeks as the "god of all natural phenomena on the sky," "personification of the laws of nature,"  "ruler of the state," and "father of gods and men."]]> 2017-12-15 21:25:01 UTC https://padlet.com/lvnguyen107/period5lucasyemily/wish/216635324 etran112 https://padlet.com/lvnguyen107/period5lucasyemily/wish/216635886 Zeus represented the laws of "unchanging and harmonious" order, in which both the spiritual and natural worlds were governed.

His father had a fear his children would want to overthrow him and rule Mt. Olympus. Before Zeus had been born, Cronus swallowed Zeus' siblings to obtain their power. Once Zeus had been born, Cronus plotted to swallow him as well. In order to save Zeus, Rhea hid him on a nearby island and tricked Cronus into swallowing a disguised rock whom he thought was his son.  Zeus' main attributes are a lightning bolt, an eagle and his royal sceptre. ]]> 2017-12-16 23:42:03 UTC https://padlet.com/lvnguyen107/period5lucasyemily/wish/216720418 etran112 https://padlet.com/lvnguyen107/period5lucasyemily/wish/216720752 Zeus spent all of his childhood years in hiding, and was never able to enjoy the happiness of being a child.
