Teiresias the blind prophet is the person whom Theban King Oedipus thinks is framing him. The reason lies in the prophet's identification of Oedipus as the very criminal that's supposed to be identified and punished with death or exile. Specifically, this criminal is the mysterious, long-ago murderer of Theban King Laius. As far as Oedipus knows, he never met his royal predecessor. So he draws the conclusion that Teiresias has the ulterior purpose of making Oedipus lose his job, and possibly his life, so that Theban King Creon may rule alone.
