The Euthyphro Argument comes from Plato’s dialogue in which Sokrates asks: Is something is right because God commands it, or does God command it because it is right?

Euthyphro; In this dialogue, Plato (427-347 B.C.) dramatizes a conversation between Socrates (c. 469-399 B.C.) and Euthyphro. Both are waiting outside the Athenian court, Euthryphro to bring a charge of murder against his father, and Socrates because he is being charged with impiety.
