The Greeks made sacrifices as a way to honor and appease their gods, seeking favor and ensuring divine protection for their city-states, families, and personal endeavors. These rituals were integral to their religious practices, as sacrifices were believed to strengthen the relationship between humans and the divine. Additionally, offerings were made to seek guidance, prosperity, or success in various aspects of life, including warfare, agriculture, and health. Ultimately, sacrifices were seen as essential for maintaining harmony between the mortal and divine realms.

The Greeks believed that by sacrificing animals to their gods, they were appeasing the gods. This was also the belief of the Jews, who sacrificed animals in the Jerusalem Temple until its destruction in 70 CE. Since the early Christians also used the Jerusalem Temple, they would no doubt also have participated in these rites. Thus, it was an almost universal belief that sacrifices should be made to the gods.
