Full Idea
The Greeks did not see the Homeric gods above them as masters and themselves below them as servants, as did the Jews. They saw, as it were, only the reflection of the most successful specimens of their own caste - an ideal, not a contrast.
Gist of Idea
The Greeks saw the gods not as their masters, but as idealised versions of themselves
