Zeus, the god of all gods, is the only one who got out from Chronus' immoral act. He has a wife who is also a goddess who is Hera, the goddess of marriage.
In the epic Iliad, Zeus and Hera are not allies in terms of support. Zeus helps Paris and the Trojans while Hera helps Achilles and the Spartans. Hera took advantage of Zeus' weakness, lust. Hera, with other gods and goddess, devices a plan that can help the Spartans defeat the Trojans. Hera made love with his husband, Zeus. After, Hera and her allies helped the Spartans defeat the Trojans. Zeus wasn't able to do anything for he has to rest.
Zeus' weakness is that he thinks everything in this world has to be give and take. He is too just to the point that he is already inflicting and pain to his allies, the Trojans.
