Did the greek gods have laws?

The gods of Greek mythology did not have laws in the same way that humans do. They were not subject to any external authority and were considered to be above the law. However, they did have their own set of rules and regulations that they followed. These rules were often based on tradition, custom, and the will of the gods themselves. For example, the gods were expected to honor their promises, to respect the rights of other gods, and to not interfere with the affairs of humans. If a god broke one of these rules, they could be punished by the other gods or by the forces of nature.
