Question

Hermes is the messenger to the gods, but he also has another special role. Select that role from among the following choices.

Answer 1

Answer: B. God Hermes (in Roman mythology-god Mercury), is the embodiment of the exchange, transfer and transition from one State or position to another.  

Hermes gives to gods prayers of people, and to people-blessings of gods. As a conductor of souls, God Hermes embodies the transition from life to death. God of eloquence and treaties, Hermes (Mercury) conveys to others the thoughts of a speaker or messenger.  Hermes accompanies the souls of deceased people and is the messenger and the expression of God's will on Earth.
