Yes, Creon returns from Delphi before Oedipus accuses him of conspiracy in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus asks his brother-in-law and royal colleague, Creon, to go to Delphi. Creon comes back and shares his news from the Delphic oracle. Shortly thereafter, Oedipus gets angry over other related news that he dislikes. Based on the two pieces of information, Oedipus makes the accusation that Creon is conspiring to grab royal powers for himself.
That he is ordered to share his information publicly is what happens when Creon returns from Delphi in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus asks Creon to consult with the Delphic oracle about how to end the pestilence. Creon comes back with a wreath on his head, a sign of good news. Oedipus demands that Creon share his news immediately in public instead of first in private inside the palace.
To verify that he is telling the truth about how to end the pestilence is the reason why Creon tells Oedipus to go to Delphi in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, a pestilence is ravaging Thebes' harvests and animal and human populations. Theban King Oedipus has Creon, his brother-in-law and royal colleague, find out why and what to do from the Apolline oracle at Delphi. Creon comes back with the information that the pestilence will end with the identification and punishment of the guilty in King Laius' murder. Upon receiving the information, Oedipus asks Teiresias the blind prophet for help and gets the shocking, treasonous reply that he himself is guilty of that crime. Oedipus then announces that Creon of getting Teiresias to make this presumably false charge in order to grab all royal powers for themselves. Creon advises Oedipus that the cause and the solution are not treasonous fabrications and that its truth can be verified by asking the Apolline oracle herself.
To find out from the Oracle at Apollo's shrine why there's pestilence in Thebes and how to end it is the errand that Theban King Oedipus entrusts to his brother-in-law and uncle, Theban King Creon. Creon indeed comes back with the necessary information. The Oracle says that the pestilence will end with the identification and punishment of the murderer or murderers of Theban King Laius, Oedipus' royal predecessor and - unbeknownst to him - his own father and sovereign.
That he will find the guilty in Laius' murder is Oedipus' reaction to Creon's information in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Creon brings back news from the Delphic oracle as to the cause and solution of the pestilence in Thebes. He indicates that the guilty in Theban King Laius' murder must be found and punished by execution or exile. Oedipus promises that it will be done.

Arrest and execute him is what Creon tells Oedipus to do if he finds out that Creon is a liar in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Creon comes back from Delphi with the oracle's prophecy that the pestilence in Thebes will end with the identification and punishment of the guilty in Theban King Laius' death. Teiresias the blind prophet then declares that King Oedipus is guilty of his royal predecessor's death. Oedipus finds it all too suspicious that the two statements can result in his overthrow and execution or exile. But Creon swears that he approves his own death if Oedipus finds proof of deceit and conspiracy.

The location of Apollo's shrine, the Delphic oracle's residence, Laius' destination and Oedipus' fateful prophecy are what Delphi is in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Delphi's visitors pass back and forth through the Delphi-Daulia crossroads in the land of Phocis. It is visited because of its shrine to the sun god Apollo and the residence of the Pythia, Apollo's most famous and respected oracle of divine prophecy and will. It is the location where subsequent Theban King Oedipus receives a life-changing prophecy. It is the final destination towards which Theban King Laius heads before his murder.
Yes, Theban King Creon returns from consulting with the Oracle at Apollo's Shrine before being accused by Theban King Oedipus. Creon comes back with the news that the killer or killers of the royal predecessor, Theban King Laius, must be identified and punished with death or exile. No one gives any helpful information by which Oedipus can track down the perpetrator or perpetrators.Oedipus therefore calls upon Teiresias the blind prophet. But Teiresias finally says that Oedipus himself is the killer who's being sought. This is such a shock that Oedipus assumes that Creon and Teiresias are conspiring to overthrow him by framing him for murder. The irony lies in the fact that what Teiresias says is true.
Creon wants Oedipus back because he want to use Oedipus as a talisman to save the people of Thebes from any curse..... boateng Qwasi

That the guilty in Laius' murder must be found and punished is the message that Creon brings back to Thebes in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Creon consults with the Delphic oracle as to how to end the pestilence in Thebes. He finds out that Thebans and Thebes are polluted by the unsolved murder of King Laius, Creon's brother-in-law and royal predecessor. He also learns that the guilty must be punished by execution or exile.
