Rather than answer your question directly, let me rather tell you the story
of the Greek god, Hermes (who, in Roman mythology, was also called Mercury).
Hermes was a lesser god who was the messenger of the Titans. To curry their
favor, Hermes descended from Mount Olympus and transported the word of the
Titans to the mortals who lived below.

The only trouble with this schema was that Hermes was a bit of trickster.
Even if a message from the gods was clearly dictated, Hermes greatly enjoyed
in obscuring it a bit, perhaps leaving the mortals in complete confusion as
to what was demanded of them or what they were to do to satisfy the will of
the gods.

That obscurity that tended to accompany the gods' wills is reflected even
today in a particular field of modern theological study called
"hermeneuticism", which roughly translated means, "What the heck does this
supposed to mean?"

But to more directly answer your question, because of these characteristics,
Hermes was not only the appointed messenger of the Olympian gods, but he also
became the patron god of a particular group of mortals, the vendors -- and
it's important to remember this small fact the next time you read someone's
advertising brochures.
