Hey I just noted, as dense as I am, that the will of Zeus being accomplished or completed in the first part of the Iliad is the same root word as that of Be ye therefore perfect. The first "he" threw me. heleteleieto didn't automatically look like teleo.

Why does the Homeric version have the "he" intro to teleo?
