Calling upon the gods for help is the chorus' reaction to Apollo's advice for Thebes in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus asks for divine assistance in identifying and punishing the guilty in King Laius' murder. The members call for help from Zeus the chief god as well as Apollo the god of prophecy, Artemis the beautiful goddess of the hunt, Athena the goddess of wisdom and Bacchus the wine god.
That there is still the concern over the pestilential environment and the polluted altars is the reason why the chorus calls on Dionysus for help after Creon goes to bury Polyneices and free Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, a pestilence afflicts Thebes. It arises because of the exposed bodies of the enemy and Theban dead. The chorus hopes for divine help in removing the pollution from the altars.
Athena's shrines are the oracular twin shrines of Pallas in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Athena is the goddess of wisdom. She is one of the gods to which the chorus turn for help in their opening ode. She is worshipped throughout the city, and her shrines are favorites among Thebans.
Consult with Teiresias is what may help Oedipus locate the murderer's whereabouts in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus asks the chorus leader for help in identifying the guilty in King Laius' murder. The chorus leader brings up Teiresias the blind prophet. He describes Teiresias as adept at details and perception.

The chorus calls upon Athena first, Artemis second, and Zeus third. Athena is the goddess of wisdom. Artemis is the goddess of the hunt. And Zeus is the king of all of the gods.Apollo the sun god is mentioned, as is the wine god Bacchus. Bacchus' aid humorously is requested against any possible interference in Theban affairs by the war god Ares. The chorus specifically asks Bacchus to get any soldiers too drunk to be able to carry out the wishes of their divine master.
In Sophocles' play Oedipus Rex, the Parados is the chorus's first ode, sung as they enter the stage. It reflects the emotional and moral tone of the play, expressing the fears and concerns of the people of Thebes as the city is suffering from a devastating plague. The Parados is structured in lyrical verses that follow the traditional Greek chorus style, alternating between strophe (the first part) and antistrophe (the second part), as the chorus chants and dances. Here is a summary of the content of the Parados in Oedipus Rex: Strophe 1: The chorus calls upon the gods—Zeus, Apollo, Athena, and Artemis—to save Thebes from its afflictions. They describe the terrible state of the city: crops are failing, children are dying, and people are perishing from illness. Antistrophe 1: They continue pleading to the gods to intervene and remove the "fire-breathing" plague from the city. The suffering is so great that they call on Ares (the god of war) to be driven away from Thebes. Strophe 2: The chorus shifts to seeking help from Apollo and other gods. They ask for divine aid in finding the cause of the plague, connecting it to some divine anger or misdeed that needs to be uncovered and resolved. READ MORE : tinyurl .com/4d2hpfdd
Send for Teiresias is what the chorus leader advises and what Oedipus already puts into effect in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus asks for help in finding the guilty in King Laius'murder. The chorus leader mentions that Teiresias the blind prophet has a mind for detail and a talent for analysis. Oedipus speaks of already sending messengers twice to request Teiresias' presence at the palace.
I wouldn't say Oedipus exhibits pride -- more like excessive pride or arrogance. In the opening scene, the chorus (townspeople) are praying to the gods because of the plague that was causing women to die in childbirth, cattle to die, and famine. But Oedipus tells the chorus that they should be instead praying to him and looking for his help. In Ancient Greece, placing yourself above the gods is a no-no, and will eventually cause your downfall, as Oedipus will experience.
