Crossword Genius

Deity of both orders (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

thor

'deity' is the definition.
(Thor is an example)

'of both orders' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'THOR' is hidden within 'both orders'.

(Other definitions for thor that I've seen before include "Scandinavian thunder-god" , "can be classed as immortal" , "Thursday is named after this Scandinavian god" , "Norse god of war" , "Divine figure" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
