"Because love covers many sins, the most important thing is that they deeply love one another, they accept each other without complaining" (Peter 1 4: 8-9).

Homer's Odyssey can introduce us to the ancient Greek culture through the house of Odesseus. In epic, hospitality and "Zenia" are expressed as a repeating theme. There are different examples of master and guest through epic. First of all, this poem presents a bad master like Calypso and Laistrygones.

After sharing his story with Phaeacians, they agreed to take Odysseus to his hometown. With a new rule, he said that you should not be beating your host in the game, as it is rude and it could hurt the relationship.
