Hercules was given the 12 labors as a form of punishment and redemption after being driven to madness by Hera, which led him to kill his wife and children. To atone for his actions, the Oracle of Delphi instructed him to serve King Eurystheus, who devised the arduous tasks to test Hercules' strength and resolve. Completing these labors would ultimately lead to his redemption and immortality, allowing him to reclaim his honor and status among the gods.
