Throughout the play, Medea and Jason both are the same in the fact that they rely on the gods in their lives. They both regularly call upon the gods and that really shows how close they are to them. But the thing that makes them both different from each other is the way that they call upon the gods. Medea seems to call on the gods for every little thing, even things that are not really necessary. This gives the impression that she feels like she is at an equal level to the gods and that they are pretty much her friends. Jason, instead, uses the gods more sparingly. He has more respect for the gods and he doesn't feel like he's equal to the gods. Instead he is just going with the fact that he is a mortal and he is at the mercy of the gods.
