Status Updates From A Odisseia de Homero

"I would not turn away a man in need, for all beggars come in Zeus's name" (Hinds 157). This quote shows how religion can lead to the goodness of man. Although some religious teachings can make people ignorant, some can make people virtuous and kind towards others. Because all beggars come in Zeus' name, many Greeks would welcome those in need like fellow humans.

i would not want telemachus to be my friend because i think greek mythology is a bit weird and having someone call on the gods and such would weird me out and scare me so thats a big no from me

I can infer that Odysseus in disguise is disgusted at what he is seeing in his hall because he wasn't able to stop what has happened and i can also infer that he is plotting to get revenge because he is sick and tired of all of them,

"If the gods wreck me again, I will suffer it, as I've suffered all before. Let it come" (Hinds 53). This line reflects how Odysseus has almost given up. He has accepted and embraced the fact that the gods are not in his favor. The punishments from the gods that will come will be nothing new and he is ready for it. As Odysseus has nothing more to lose, he is willing to face their wrath.

I can infer that Penelope is being sad and worried due to the fact that Telemachus is going to look for his father and Penelope might be worried that he will end up with the same fate as his father, which is being missing for 18 years.

i can infer that Telemachus is feeling brave and maybe excited because he was visited by the god Athena and that he is going to search for his long lost father ever since he was a child

This is one of the versions my freshmen will be exploring when we return from break. So far it is awesome.
