Question
from the iliad of homer
translated by richard lattimore
book twenty - two
so along the city the trojans, who had run like fawns, dried
the sweat off from their bodies and drank and slaked their thirst, leaning
along the magnificent battlements. meanwhile the achaians
sloping their shields across their shoulders came close to the rampart.
but his deadly fate held hektor shackled, so that he stood fast
in front of ilion and the skaian gates. now phoibos
apollo spoke aloud to peleion: \why, son of peleus,
do you keep after me in the speed of your feet, being mortal
while i am an immortal god? even yet you have not
seen that i am a god, but strain after me in your fury.
now hard fighting with the trojans whom you stampeded means nothing
to you. they are crowded in the city, but you bent away here.
you will never kill me. i am not one who is fated.\
deeply vexed achilleus of the swift feet spoke to him:
\you have balked me, striker from afar, most malignant of all gods,
when you turned me here away from the rampart, else many trojans
would have caught the soil in their teeth before they got back into ilion.
now you have robbed me of great glory, and rescued these people
lightly, since you have no retribution to fear hereafter.
else i would punish you, if only the strength were in me.\
he answered and stalked away against the sky with dark thoughts
doomed by his destiny, from ill - sounding death and release
do it, then; but not all the rest of us gods shall approve you.
what does athene’s perspective reveal?
disagreement among the gods
friendship between the gods
the physical strength of the gods
the humor of the gods
Athene says “not all the rest of us gods shall approve you” regarding another god's action. This shows that the gods don't all agree on the action, indicating disagreement among them. The other options (friendship, physical strength, humor) don't align with this statement as it's about approval/disapproval, not friendship, strength, or humor.
