Jupiter , "sky father", also known as Jove gen. Iovis [ˈjɔwɪs]), is the god of the sky and thunder and king of the gods in Ancient Roman religion and mythology. Jupiter was the chief deity of Roman state religion throughout the Republican and Imperial eras, until Christianity became the dominant religion of the Empire. In Roman mythology, he negotiates with Numa Pompilius, the second king of Rome, to establish principles of Roman religion such as offering, or sacrifice.
Jupiter is usually thought to have originated as an aerial god. His identifying implement is the thunderbolt and his primary sacred animal is the eagle,[2] which held precedence over other birds in the taking of auspices[3] and became one of the most common symbols of the Roman army (see Aquila). The two emblems were often combined to represent the god in the form of an eagle holding in its claws a thunderbolt, frequently seen on Greek and
Roman coins.[4] As the sky-god, he was a divine witness to oaths, the sacred trust on which justice and good government depend. Many of his functions were focused on the Capitoline Hill, where the citadel was located. In the Capitoline Triad, he was the central guardian of the state with Juno and Minerva. His sacred tree was the oak.
The Romans regarded Jupiter as the equivalent of the Greek Zeus,[5] and in Latin literature and Roman art, the myths and iconography of Zeus are adapted under the name Iuppiter. In the Greek-influenced tradition, Jupiter was the brother of Neptune and Pluto, the Roman equivalents of Poseidon and Hades respectively. Each presided over one of the three realms of the universe: sky, the waters, and the underworld. The Italic Diespiter was also a sky god who manifested himself in the daylight, usually identified with Jupiter.[6] Tinia is usually regarded as his Etruscan counterpart.

木星,“天空的父亲”,也被称为朱将军Iovis[ˈjɔwɪs]),是天空,雷声的神和神王在古代罗马宗教和神话。朱庇特是整个共和帝国时期罗马国家宗教的主神，直到基督教成为帝国的主导宗教。在罗马神话中，他与罗马第二任国王努玛·庞培利乌斯谈判，以确立罗马宗教的原则，如献祭或祭祀。
木星通常被认为起源于一个空中之神。他的识别工具是雷电，他最主要的神圣动物是鹰，[2]在[3]的赞助中比其他鸟类更有优势，并成为罗马军队最常见的象征之一(见Aquila)。希腊和罗马硬币上经常出现鹰爪夹着雷电的形状，这两个象征符号经常被组合在一起代表上帝。[4]作为天空之神，他是宣誓的神圣见证人，是正义和良好政府所依赖的神圣信任。他的许多功能都集中在城堡所在的卡皮托利山。在卡皮托利亚三合会中，他是朱诺和密涅瓦的中心守护者。他的圣树是橡树。
罗马人把朱庇特比作希腊的宙斯，[5]，在拉丁文学和罗马艺术中，宙斯的神话和肖像被改编为Iuppiter。在受希腊影响的传统中，木星是海王星和冥王星的兄弟，在罗马相当于海神波塞冬(Poseidon)和冥王(Hades)。他们各自掌管着宇宙的三个领域之一:天空、水和地下世界。斜体Diespiter也是天空之神，他在白天显现，通常与木星联系在一起。[6] Tinia通常被认为是他的伊特鲁里亚对手.
