In Homer's "Odyssey," the character who witnesses Zeus sending a good omen to Odysseus is the swineherd Eumaeus. This occurs when Odysseus, disguised as a beggar, is in the company of Telemachus and Eumaeus. The omen takes the form of an eagle carrying a trembling dove, which is interpreted as a sign of divine favor and protection for Odysseus as he seeks to reclaim his home and family.

In Homer's "Odyssey," Zeus sends an omen to Odysseus in the form of two eagles that soar above him and his men. The eagles engage in a fierce fight, symbolizing the impending conflict and struggle that Odysseus will face. This sign is interpreted by the prophet Halitherses, who explains that it foretells the defeat of the suitors and the eventual return of Odysseus to reclaim his home and honor. Thus, the omen serves as a divine assurance of Odysseus's fate and the support of the gods in his journey.
In the story The Odyssey, Zeus orders Calypso release Odysseus from Calypso's island. Zeus was convinced by the goddess, Athena, to help Odysseus.

Zeus did not throw a thunderbolt at Odysseus. In the Odyssey, Zeus actually sends a storm to disrupt Odysseus' journey home as punishment for his men eating the cattle of the sun god Helios. Odysseus himself avoids direct retribution from Zeus.

Yes, Odysseus' father is Laertes. However, in ancient Greece, all kings come from the line of Zeus. Therefore, in a sense, Zeus is also Odysseus' father. =)
Zeus generally has a favorable attitude toward Odysseus in Homer's epic poems. Zeus sometimes intervenes on Odysseus' behalf, such as by sending Hermes to help him or by ensuring he eventually returns home to Ithaca. Zeus respects Odysseus for his cunning and resourcefulness, which align with Zeus' own qualities.
