According to hesiod, what is the significance of zeus, prometheus, and pandora?

They were two opposite forces that faced each other.

Explanation:

Hesiod was an ancient Greek poet who, according to some scholars, was active in the same ages as Homer.

According to Hesiod, Prometheus stole the fire from the heavens in order to give it to humans; after this happened, Zeus, the Lord of Greek gods who overthrew his own father Kronos and took his place, got angry. He sent Pandora in order to get his revenge after Prometheus stole the fire. This way, we can see that Prometheus was worried about mankind's future, while Pandora was a tool used by Zeus to get his revenge through the jar (later a box) he sent containing all the evils that later on spread around the world.
