What does Creon say that Oedipus needs to do to get proof of Creon's innocence in 'Oedipus Rex'?
Consult with the Delphic oracle is what Creon says that Oedipus needs to do to get proof of Creon's innocence in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus groundlessly charges Creon, his brother-in-law and royal colleague, with attempting to usurp all royal powers. Creon defends himself. He says that Oedipus need only check with the Delphic oracle. The oracle will confirm that the pestilence can be ended only with the identification and punishment of the guilty in King Laius' murder.
Why will Oedipus not change his mind and accept Creon's innocence in 'Oedipus Rex'?
Because he rejects Teiresias' identification of Laius' killer and because he believes Creon alone stands to gain from the misidentification, Oedipus will not change his mind about Creon and accept his innocence in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Teiresias the blind prophet identifies Theban King Oedipus as the killer of his royal predecessor, Laius. Oedipus does not remember doing any such thing. He concludes that Teiresias is lying in an attempt to gather all royal powers into the hands of Creon, Oedipus' brother-in-law and royal colleague. Nothing else makes any sense to him since Teiresias' charges, if taken seriously, will cause Oedipus to lose his job, which will be taken over by Creon, as the closest relative who already knows how to do the job of ruling Thebes.
What is the chorus view of tiresias accusations against Oedipus?
The Chorus in "Oedipus Rex" initially supports Oedipus and believes in his innocence, viewing Tiresias's accusations as shocking and unfounded. However, as the truth unfolds, the Chorus gradually shifts its perspective, recognizing that Tiresias, though blind, possesses insight into the reality of Oedipus's situation. They come to see the wisdom in Tiresias's warnings and reflect on the dangers of pride and ignorance. Ultimately, the Chorus moves from loyalty to Oedipus to a deeper understanding of fate and the tragic consequences of his actions.

He believes that her distress is rooted in her worry for him, and in that moment, he feels a sense of relief and hope that the truth may not be as dire as he feared.
