Zeus

 

In spite of maintaining strict neutrality Zeus seems to be titled to the Trojans-Elucidate.

 

Ans. Zeus was quite aware of the attitude of Hera and Athene who were bent upon helping the Greeks in war. He warned them not to interfere in the affairs of the Greeks and the Trojans. Zeus also warned them in case they tried to disobey him, he world cast them out of Mt Olympus. Nestor and Diomedes encountered Hector. Whenever Diomedes rushed on towards Hector a thunderbolt was hurled by Zeus in front of him. Rightly interpreting this to be the direct interference of Zeus, Nestor held Diomedes back from further aggression. Hector tauntingly called Diomedes "woman". But each time he turned round in unbearable anger Zeus thunder forced him back. Zeus makes no secret about his living for Hector.
