Free will is definitely more noticeable in the Old Testament compare to the Greek literature we have read in class. However, talk of fate and destiny had way more of an appearance in Greek literature compare to the idea of free will. Whenever a individual felt lost and didn't know what to do next, they would look at the foretold prophecies. Being able to look at prophecies diminishes the idea of free will since it allows an individual to be able to see the future, and prophecies are supposed to "written in stone" meaning that they don't change. Unless of course there was a way to read the prophecies while they're updating, but even then there would still be some kind of endless loop of having to rely on the prophecies.
