Odysseus describes himself as "wily Odysseus" when he introduces himself to the Phaeacians. He emphasizes his intelligence and resourcefulness, traits that have helped him survive his long journey back from the Trojan War.
Odysseus should not have upset Poseidon because gods were typically appeased to avoid their wrath. By blinding Poseidon's son, the Cyclops Polyphemus, Odysseus provoked Poseidon's anger, leading to his long and perilous journey home in "The Odyssey." Poseidon's vengeance caused numerous challenges and delays for Odysseus, making his journey much more difficult.
Telemachus initially believes Odysseus is a god due to his sudden appearance and heroic actions. Odysseus later explains his transformation by revealing his true identity and recounting his long journey home, including encounters with gods and his own struggles. This clarifies to Telemachus that he is indeed his father, not a god.
Penelope tests Odysseus by asking him about their bed, which only the true Odysseus would know was built inside a living olive tree. This test confirms his identity to Penelope and proves that he is her husband returned after a long absence.
