God (Symbol of Authority)
Socrates argues that his philosophy is to serve God but not to satisfy human beings. For instance, Socrates defends himself against the case before him that his comic play aims to serve God but not corrupt the Athenian youths. According to Socrates, God is the ultimate power, and one can compete with Him. Therefore, Socrates uses God symbolically to imply that his philosophical work is for the mighty king of heaven.
