Zeus put Hope in the box to make sure humans won’t give up and kill themselves. Hope was his greatest evil. This would insure that humans would continue to suffer for eternity just like Prometheus .

What's sad is she's often blamed and vilified but Zeus literally created her to fail. She was made to have such an unnatural level of curiosity and was handed what was in essence a bomb. They specifically designed her to be unable to leave it closed, she is blameless really. If she had been a normal, mortal woman who was gifted the box then you could argue that she carries a small amount of the blame for opening the box as her free will was involved (but the box shouldn't have existed in the first place). Poor Pandora wasn't given a choice as it was truly down to how she was made. She was a tool used in a conflict between two warring Men, and as always Zeus was a HUGE D**K about everything!

@andreanottellin2129 4 года назад

100% Agreed!!🙂✨🦉 Beautifully Put!!xxx💝xxx.

@blueneptune146 3 года назад

I slightly disagree. She was given curiosity as a trait but she also had free will. She was created by the gods, just as all men were, but she was still a normal, mortal woman. She was told by the gods not to open the box. It's true that Zeus hoped she'd fail. If she didn't, man would just go around with their fire and now their Pandora. He wanted her to fail, but he didn't force her to fail. Had she just followed what Zeus had told her and not opened the box, things would have been different. If only one of her gifts was self discipline or obedience.

@DJ-ku6ro 3 года назад

Wonder if Hera had not given the gift of curiosity where would we be now.

@suspiciousfigure3096 3 года назад

@AnimeSlaps 2 года назад

She had free will, giving her curiosity doesn't doom her to have to open the box. She made a decision against the orders of the man who gave it to her and doomed mankind. The same way Eve had free will and was explicitly told not to eat the apple but she made a decision and doomed mankind.

You wouldn't need hope if it weren't for the all the misery that was set free. Hope was Zeus's most evil addition to all miseries. Hope is the lie that tells you to keep going. What u don't realize is that what you keep going, is in a circle of perpetual torment and pain.

Well ...... historically Pandora means all gifts. Pandora did not get a box. She got a jar. Throughout history, many translate the original text and mistranslated part of the story. Pandora’s story is a very male dominated point of view toward women. Depict women as the one who release all evil to the world yet with a hint of hope for the future. In the Ancient Greek language, womb was described as jar ......... which indirectly saying the gods send Pandora out to cause trouble to man kind by lighting the fire of jealousy, lust, pleasure , madness and etc within them. Yet contain hope within for a future or a better future - another word: children.

@user-cr4cj1fl8z 6 лет назад

in the bible they also depict woman as the direct result of well what everything else happened after God kicked her and Adam out.Idk i guess people viewe women as primal source to evil back then. And those crazy feminist are starting to bring that feeling back into men and its a shame. People worked hard to create a some what normaly working society and you can tell that its starting to go down hill as of late.

I like the way the game God of war handles the Pandora's box story even though I don't really like the way they handle Pandora herself. Zues put all evil thing inside the box and Athena secretly put Hope inside it. When the box was open, all the evil infected the gods themself first and lead them to their destruction, the end of the age of gods. As Olympus fell, the world of Greek also ruined. It's like the original story: when the box is opened, the world is ruined. Finally hope was release and spread among man kind. From that point, man are on their own, no longer being controlled by gods and have to rebuild everything: the start of the age of man. However, poor Pandora....

I heard this story decades ago and the ending was different but also the same . When Pandora released the demons on the world she was able to shut the box in time to stop the last demon from escaping . That demon was hope . If that demon would have escaped there would be no hope because that demon would have destroyed it , but because she stopped it the world would still have hope .

@EVENINGWOLF666 6 лет назад

I have to disagree with the assessment that hope was, or is a good thing. It was included in the box because it is the most dangerous of all. it gives people an unrealistic sense of comfort and placates them rather than spurring them on to action. We mortals have become complacent and are far more willing to spend our time hoping that things can or will get better and precious little time actually doing anything to make things better.

@MythologyFictionExplained 6 лет назад

Yeah I've had this discussion a few times and I do agree with you I kinda see the idea of hope or false hope as Zeus' last laugh.

@keelamron 6 лет назад

Ah but true hope does cause you to act. True hope is action in the midst of evils that otherwise can overcome us, bringing about change and new life.

@jameshyman418 6 лет назад

too true , hope is the last evil to leave as with all the evils released into the world to have hope was a delusion , it was nothing to do with a fair chance because after all the evils were let free we are born and we begin to die , its the one thing that is 100% a cert , zeus was a arsehole that wasn't content with a quick death , when he had a point to prove he went out of his way to prove it

@unslaadkrosis3489 6 лет назад

Alex Hunter Hope is both good and bad. You’re absolutely right in your assessment, but hope is also the one thing that helps us withstand everything else. It is the belief that there’s a possibility things can get better. It’s a blessing and a curse. It breeds laziness and complacency, but it also inspires action. Hope is facing all the horrors of this world and emerging with a smile on your face and new resolve.

@jameshyman418 6 лет назад

in our view correct it is both but in ancient greece HOPE was all bad ....... child mortality was sky high , living to 40 was for a few , women died during childbirth death was all around the visage of medusa they painted on shields to cause fear were based on the face of corpses , to have hope with death around the corner was seen as a total evil ........ before the evils of the world were released there was no call for hope ......... everyone lived forever lets not forget that zeus had a wicked sense of humor as did all the gods but zeus when he went to prove a point he went full steam , look at the story of the minotaur or medusa being punished for being raped hercules killed his own family all their stories ended in tragedy so no in greek HOPE was the last evil as to have hope was wasted and a cruel jest

@rusteshackleferd8115 6 лет назад

elgatochurro no it wasn't Pandora's fault because Hera hated mankind (especially women due to Zues's infidelity) so much that knowing how Zues planed to use Pandora as a weapon against his enemies real or imagined she gave Pandora the "gift" of curiosity so she would be forced to ppen the box. If Hera had given Pandora ANYTHING else as a gift the box NEVER would have been opened and Zues's plan would have failed.

@elgatochurro 6 лет назад

ruste shackleferd it was Pandoras fault as well, she opened it. Who cares about the gift of curiosity? All humans and sombre animals habe this gift and they could've opened it too had they been told to not open it.

The most important similarity that comes to anyone’s mind is the uncanny similarity between Zeus and Indra. Not only both of them are King of Gods in their respective mythologies, but even their weapon is almost same. The similarities do not end just with their position or weapon, even their abode is quite similar. While Zeus stays at Mount Olympus, Indra stays at Mount Meru. Zeus is known as the king of gods. Indra is the king of gods. Both of them also share some striking character traits. I don't know if Hindu Mythology or Greek is older.

@damunaik4 Год назад

It's not Mythology when you say Hindu. It's theology, or ancient history. I know it sounds illogical, but we need to know that "mythology" is the term given to it by the Europeans. They branded only their religion as something that really existed, while calling everything else a myth.

@music79075 Год назад

@@damunaik4 1. Zeus is a European god and is considered mythology today 2. myth A. a traditional story, especially one concerning the early history of a people or explaining some natural or social phenomenon, and typically involving supernatural beings or events. "ancient Celtic myths" B. a widely held but false belief or idea. "he wants to dispel the myth that sea kayaking is too risky or too strenuous" So it is not necessarily referring to an alleged false belief. 3.

It's also said that Hope was as evil as anything in the box for sometimes it's also futile to hope when there's no prospects of things getting better. For example: we hope that someone dear comes out of an illness and when it doesn't happen along with all the hope disillusionment will follow and we feel the weight of it. The Greeks also thought of this

Humans to a certain extend but not always can change your lives for the better. True bad things like natural disaster, loved one death, serious health problems, being born into poverty with no legal way to make money because no one will give you a job even when your education qualifies you for that job, and etc. happens. I believe humans if joined can work together to ease the burden of those problems. Even individuals with nothing have occassionaly when given a chance do succeed against the odds

I believe that hope is the match that lights the flame of trying harder and learning more in order for success!

Hmm. Well a chain mail message says that you have to resend it 10 times if you "hope" to have a good life. Are you resending it, or ignoring it? 🤔

Curiosity kills the cat,as they say. Too bad there was no iPad for her to play with instead of that box.

kirby march Barcena curiosity killed the cat but satisfaction brought him back is the full saying and exactly why hope was put into the box

@kirbymarchbarcena 6 лет назад

Samantha Lugo Yeah,that may be but surely, Pandora's curiosity got the best of her and she never will have that satisfaction that she hoped for after knowing she was responsible for the release of the evil deeds.

opening Pandora's box might be a metaphor for sex

@hopeb9466 6 лет назад

the "hope" being the search for the female orgasm ;)

@333angeleyes 6 лет назад

Nope! Wrong hope was another evil-the box (jar) was "full" of evils and hope is the most powerful evil; it fuels the others

Sooo... why give Pandora the box when the point was NOT to open it?? But incidentally... WHAT'S IN THE BOXXX??!!

@MythologyFictionExplained 6 лет назад

The point was to open it and unleash all the evils upon mankind... Zeus said the box was not to be opened knowing that Pandora' curiosity would get the better of her.

Sounds like the story of Adam and Eve But in a different way, makes us understand that all ideas, thoughts and religions and lots of Science are taking from the old great civilizations 💀
