As immortal supernatural beings, modern readers might expect the gods and goddesses to be completely self-sufficient and omnipotent. However, they seem to be no less needy than humans. So, what gain do the gods receive for involving themselves in the lives of the Achaeans and Trojans? Why does Hera nag Zeus for nearly ending the Trojan War without razing Troy? Why does Zeus himself desire the praise of the gods? Is Zeus a good husband to Hera? What even makes a good husband? How does he compare with Paris in the previous section, Book 3? Devin and Colton consider these questions in Episode 5, Iliad Book 4.
