<sarcasm> Reason says that Sophocles would not have said something properly translated to a singular/monotheistic deity during the fifth century BCE, at a time when the only monotheism in his region was Judaism. Unless he was secretly a Jew, which would be inconsistent with some of the… received wisdom(?)… that would lead to translations like this. (And we’ll carefully ignore about half of the remainder of Sophocles’s writings in any History of Western Civilization course because they’re not consistent with The Tradition.)
