Gods reflected the cultures that worshiped them. The Greek pantheon of gods was a family, they were all related to each other. This was a reflection of Greek society, which was comprised of families and extended families. Families do have a hierarchy.

That is how things were arranged in those days and still are in many oganizations even today, including some churches and even the military (they call it the chain of command).
