What promise did Israelite believe god made to Abraham?

AnswerThe Israelites believed that God had made a promise to Abraham that his successors would inherit the land of the Canaanites. This would have included other, non-Hebrew people such as the Arabs, said in The Bible to be descendants of Ishmael, so the promise or covenant was later refined to include only the descendants of Israel.

What happened to Hera after the Trojan war?

Hera was the Roman goddess Juno, and also the patron goddess of Carthage under another name (Tanit). (Greeks and Romans considered that the gods were the same everywhere, but different cities worshiped them under different names). She was also patron of the city-states of Argos and Mycenae (and many other places). As Tanit / Juno - Hera attempted to impede Aeneas' escape from Troy to Italy;- knowing that Aeneas' descendants would found Rome, which would in time destroy her holy city of Carthage. The Aeneid has Juno as a major character, acting mainly as Aeneas' antagonist.


How would you describe the relationship between Aeneas and his wife?

Was Aeneas justified in killing Turnus in the Aeneid?

Throughout the Aeneid Aeneas follows the will of the Gods (which is also Fate). Aeneas is fated to kill Turnus, so that the Roman race can establish itself in Italy. It is Aeneas' duty to follow his destiny, since resisting destiny is to resist the will of the gods. Vergil in many ways has ideas which closely anticipate the thinking of the Christians who would arrive a few generations later. The idea of submitting one's personal desires to the will of god is very Christian. (Aeneas does it by leaving Dido, Christ did it in the Garden of Gethsemane).
