To temper justice with mercy is to consider the individual and societal needs of forgiveness in order to soften (temper) our need for justice. It is possibly another way of having the punishment fit the crime. Today, we have systems where certain victimless crimes or wrongdoings are met with such incredibly harsh and seemingly disproportionate punishment that we do immense harm to a person's spirit and ability to overcome, repent, develop and grow from mistakes.

Why is Antigone seen as a good person?
Because she respects the gods, her family and her hometown Antigone is seen as a good person in the play "Antigone."Specifically, mortals are expected to obey divine laws. In the case of Antigone, she respects the divine law that all Thebans are to receive divinely ordained funerary rites and below-ground burial procedures. No one - not even Theban King Creon - has the right to deny Thebans such as the disloyal Polyneices of these god-given rights. Antigone disobeys human law and obeys divine law by burying her disloyal brother.According to ancient Greek culture, this is the correct and good thing to do. In fact, to do otherwise is not only blasphemous and disfunctional to the family but also dangerous for Thebes. Not following proper, divinely ordained procedure pollutes people and the entire environment. Antigone's uncle and sovereign therefore contaminates not only himself but all Thebans and all Thebes when he prevents the burials of Polyneices and the other disloyal Theban dead.
