What was the job of priest in ancient Greece?

Answer 1

Like priests in Chistianity, they acted as living links between Earth and the spiritual world. They accepted prayers, offerings, and sacrifices on behalf of their respective gods, kept the temples clean and sacred, and many were also considered oracles. They offered advice generally, but oracles were believed to see the future, and they're importance is illustrated all throughout mythology. U could ask the oracle anything abt the future and they would answer, but never a straight answer, usually in riddles and vague generalizations.

Oedipus' fate was foretold by an oracle, and the moral of that story was not to attempt to Dodge fate by cheating and in vain.

The oracle at Delphi was the most popular, but it turns out there r plants and gases in that location that would have been intoxicating to the oracles of Delphi. Ancient greeks probably thought the oracles were chosen by Apollo and that explained the mindless psychobabbling of the ranting oracles, but in reality we'll never know if that's true, or if Ancient Greek prophesies and religion orbitted around a stoned priest or one desenting into madness from overexposure to the elements
