The nature of divine presence in life and death is the religious theme in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, the gods have oracles to tell mortals how to lead their lives. They have the Furies of fate to make sure that how the gods expect mortal lives to be led indeed is carried out. It is an all-encompassing presence since that gods leave no disobedience, disrespect, infraction or questioning unpunished.
