O;oad book 1 God's address



from : http://www.gutenberg.org/files/6130/6130-pdf.pdf



Achilles in discontent withdraws himself and his forces from the rest of the Greeks; and complaining to Thetis, she supplicates Jupiter to render them sensible of the wrong done to her son, by giving victory to the Trojans. Jupiter, granting her suit, incenses Juno: between whom the debate runs high, till they are reconciled by the address of Vulcan.

It seems that the Greeks who were faithful to Thetis who is Minerva went to war with those of the faiths of juno.  A petition through Thetisa had Hera, who is juno, to have Vulcan address a reconciliation.
Juno gets high to reach the arguement that runs high as the incenses allows Vulcan to address them, of fire and smelting, of metal.  Insence are symbolic rise of enlightenment through teh holy commune, which is a personal  interaction with teh divine godhead of Godthit.
If you examine this passage concerning the gods as if it were a myth to explain the situation that starts the iliad you realise that judgement favoured placement and consequently internal order gets high divinely enough to understand and thus addresses the situation with fire, full of the energy of the debate.  the address of fire is the reconciliation to appease the offspring of placement, the offspring being happiness as in hope,  by the justice of enlightenment and the smoke and fires that cause it to become as much a reconciliation as a recompense.
