What does Athena's intervention tell us about the role of the gods and goddesses in The Iliad?
Athena's motivation in the Iliad mainly came from a story that was not included in the Iliad. Eris, the goddess of discord, gave a golden apple at the wedding of Peleus and Thetis (Achilles's parents) to be awarded to the fairest goddess. The three goddesses in contention were Hera, Aphrodite, and of course Athena. Zeus, for once being smart, refused to pick the winner so the unlucky chooser ended up being Paris, a prince of Troy. Paris picked Aphrodite because she promised him Helen. Athena and Hera were both very mad and so helped the Achaeans or Greeks in the Trojan War. This is basically the motivation behind all of Athena's actions, to bring about the downfall of Troy.

Why did Hector tell the Trojan women to make offerings to Athena?
Because it was a competition to see which goddess was the fairest. Aphrodite promised Paris that she would make Helen fall in love with him and that was his prize for choosing her as the most fair.
Maybe Paris is a little feckless and fickle, sort of silly. Paris was offered Kingdoms by Hera queen of the Gods, and wisdom by Athena, he turned them both down for the most beautifuk woman, and this led to the Trojan War where Paris may have been killed. On the other hand, Zeus does not randomly pick Paris, because Paris had a reputation for gracefully conceding defeat, as in the contest as to whose bull was greatest: Paris' or Ares, who incarnated himself as a divine bull, nothing better. Paris refuses to give Helen back to the Greeks as a way to avert the Trojan War. Even when he is pressed by his brother Hector and the Trojan elders (?).
He didn't. He gave the apple to Aphrodite.
