Role model personal and professional life of kings are the cultural values in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, kings have to be role models for their people. They must lead personal and professional lives that do not offend gods or mortals. They need to respect the fates that the gods have custom made to each mortal. When they do not meet divine and royal standards, they step down and punish themselves in anticipation of being punished by the gods.
"Rex" is Latin for "King". Oedipus Rex means "Oedipus the King".
Thebes is the setting of Oedipus Rex because it is the place where the story begins.
'King' is an English equivalent of 'Rex' in the play 'Oedipus Rex'.
The shepherd in Oedipus Rex is the person who rescues Oedipus Rex as a child. The shepherd also confirms the main character's fate.
