What does Odysseus’ treatment of his disloyal servants suggest about him and about Homeric morality in The Odyssey?

Odysseus' treatment of his disloyal servants is justified.
Odysseus has been loyal his entire life. He cannot imagine anyone being disloyal. In the
time of Odysseus, honor was as important as strength and
bravery.

Doing the right thing was absolutely the moral
thing to do. For Odysseus, loyalty was one of the most important qualities. Odysseus
uses his wit to find out who had been disloyal. In a matter of moments, the battle
between Odysseus and his disloyal servants is a heated battle. After much bloodshed,
Odysseus clears the hall and kills every disloyal
servant.

In Homeric times, honor, loyalty and morality was
as important, if not more important, as being a great warrior. Odysseus lived by a code
of honor. He believed everyone around him should live by a code of honor. To be disloyal
would be a crime punishable by death.

That is why Odysseus
clears the room of disloyal servants. Since there was no judicial system in place during
this time period, Odysseus took matters into his own hands. He stood for honor and
loyalty. Those who did not were punished by death. Odysseus was a just man who practiced
honor and loyalty. He expected those around him to do the same.
