No, the chorus does not admonish Oedipus to leave his wife in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, no one says anything to Theban King Oedipus about what to do about the body of Theban Queen Jocasta. It is Oedipus who takes the initiative. Creon is now King of Thebes, and Oedipus asks his brother-in-law, former enemy and royal colleague to give Jocasta a proper burial.
It is the chorus leader who convinces Oedipus to allow Creon to leave in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus accuses his brother-in-law and royal colleague, Creon, of conspiring with Teiresias the blind prophet to grab all royal powers for themselves. He demands execution as the punishment in the choice between that and exile. Oedipus' wife, Queen Jocasta, makes an unsuccessful effort to talk Oedipus out of such cruel, rash action. But Oedipus relents only when the chorus leader observes that unity instead of conflict is needed and that Creon swears an oath as to the truth of his self-defense.
It is Jocasta that the chorus leader claims can settle the dispute between Oedipus and Creon in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Creon cannot stop the argument that his brother-in-law Theban King Oedipus starts. The chorus leader cannot stop it either. But he is confident that Queen Jocasta, Creon's sister and Oedipus' conciliatory wife, can end it all.
There is nothing that Jocasta convinces Oedipus to do to Creon in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus leader advises Creon and his brother-in-law Theban King Oedipus that they need to end their quarrel. He cautions that Queen Jocasta, Creon's sister and Oedipus' wife, will do it for them. But in fact, Jocasta contributes nothing to the quarrel's resolution. Instead, it is the chorus leader who manages to get Oedipus to back down from executing his brother-in-law.

He does not back down from his groundless charges. Queen Jocasta, Oedipus' wife and Creon's sister, makes an almost successful attempt to reconcile the two men. But the chorus leader pushes until Oedipus backs down.
Jocasta is the name of Oedipus' wife in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus is married to the Theban Queen. His wife's name is Jocasta. She is his first and only wife, but Oedipus is Jocasta's second husband.

The chorus leader interrupts when Oedipus and Creon fight in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus leader makes conciliatory observations on valid points raised during the fight between Theban King Oedipus and Creon, his brother-in-law and royal colleague. That is to no avail. He finally interrupts them both and warns that Queen Jocasta, Oedipus' wife and Creon's sister, is headed their way.

This is a treasonable charge to make. It automatically carries a punishment of death or exile. Theban Queen Jocasta, Oedipus' wife and Creon's sister, tries to talk her husband out of carrying through on this threat. She does not succeed, but the chorus leader as head of the Theban elders does get through.
It is worry over the quarrel between Creon and Oedipusthat the chorus leader expresses just before Jocasta's entry in the third scene of "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus accuses his brother-in-law and royal colleague Creon of conspiring with Teiresias the blind prophet to grab all royal powers for themselves. Creon defends himself, but Oedipus does not accept any of Creon's defenses. The chorus leader interrupts to say that the quarrel needs to end now or it for sure will be ended by Queen Jocasta, Oedipus' wife and Creon's brother.
It is to no longer see an incestuous relationship that the servant reports as Oedipus' explanation for his self-mutilation in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the servant exits from the palace to inform the chorus of the goings-on inside.
