Ponder Oedipus

I don't have the exact question with me...but I want you to ponder the following...

What is the significance of 3s in Oedipus? Three messengers tell Oedipus about his past, Oedipus is damned three times, the sphinx tells her story and it refers to three times of life, etc...

The number three is said to have spiritual significance. So what is the connection?? (You can research the significance of three, if you wish!)
