In [Hebrews 1:10-12](https://www.bible.com/bible/59/HEB.1.10-12), the author attributes the creation of the earth and heavens directly to Jesus, equating Him with the Lord (?????? - Kyrios) who laid the foundations of the world. This passage clearly identifies Jesus as the divine agent of creation, despite traditional Jewish beliefs, such as those expressed in
[Isaiah 44:24](https://www.bible.com/bible/59/ISA.44.24), asserting that God alone created the universe.
> [!bible]+ [Hebrews 1:10-12 - ESV](https://bolls.life/ESV/58/1/)
> 10. And, “You, Lord, laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning, and the heavens are the work of your hands; 11. they will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment, 12. like a robe you will roll them up, like a garment they will be changed. But you are the same, and your years will have no end.”

The verses from Hebrews directly quote Psalms 102:24-27, where the Psalmist speaks to God (Theos - El), praising Him for His eternal nature and creative power. By applying these verses to Jesus, the author of Hebrews integrates Jesus into the identity of God. This connection is significant as it aligns Jesus not only with the act of creation but also with God's immutable and eternal nature.

> 24. “O my God,” I say, “take me not away in the midst of my days — you whose years endure throughout all generations!” 25. Of old you laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. 26. They will perish, but you will remain; they will all wear out like a garment. You will change them like a robe, and they will pass away, 27. but you are the same, and your years have no end. 28. The children of your servants shall dwell secure; their offspring shall be established before you.

This creates a profound link between the Old Testament understanding of God as the sole creator and the New Testament revelation of Jesus' divine nature. The use of Old Testament scripture to describe Jesus in the New Testament, particularly in contexts underscoring divine attributes like creation and eternal existence, underlines the early Christian belief in the unity of Jesus with God. Therefore, the passage in Hebrews, by referring to Jesus with terms originally applied to God, illustrates the early Christian conviction that Jesus was indeed God in human form.
