Answer:
The gods lived by different values than humans.
Step-by-step explanation:
In Greek mythology, gods are presented with many flaws, just like humans – they were vain, jealous, proud, boastful, etc. We see Hera’s jealousy in this passage clearly.
However, their values are different, and so Hera has the permission to act much more cruelly than a human would. In ancient Greece, a human woman would have to be quiet about her husband’s illegitimate child. Yet gods from mythology have different value systems, and it is okay for Hera to be vengeful and cast a cruel curse of madness on Hercules, killing his family and exiling him.
