Re: Heb.1:8?

Thanks, I saw that there when I first read the passage but not sure if every the passage is meant to have point for point equivalence?
Reading back over Hebrews and in light of 1:10 "You, Lord, laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning,
and the heavens are the work of your hands;"
vs 1:2 says "but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world."
So God is not the Son, God created the world through (how He did it) the Son and vs. 10 is pointing back and repeating the Son's involvement with the creation of the world.
Else we have God (the who)creating the world through (how) the Son but then saying the Son is the (who)?
Hebrews does repeat itself, the Son is greater than angels for instance.
So wouldn't vs 10 be repeating giving attention to all of the heavens and the earth having the Son's part in it?
