.... in a more coercive manner than good. Satan and his followers in Paradise Lost are presented as being more evil than God and his disciples are good. God addresses the Son to be in the likeness of himself in Book three by saying, "The radiant image of his glory sat, his only Son."(Bk. 3, 63-64).

These ideals were brought about by a philosophy that was thriving in Greece during Sophocles' lifetime.
