What Does This Name of Jesus Mean?

Heb.1:1-2: As the Son of God, Jesus has the name of the Father. “God, who at sundry times, and in diverse manners spake in times past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, Whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by Whom also He made the worlds.”

Jesus created the world in partnership with the Father. As Jehovah the Father said: “Let US make man in our own image.” What did He mean by “US?” and “OUR?” (Gen.1:26, 9:6, Jo.14:23).

Today, God has “spoken unto us by His Son.” Notice that BOTH God and His Son are mentioned here. Note the last two phrases again: “Whom He hath appointed Heir of all things, by Whom also He made the worlds.” (Heb.1:1-2). It is clear from this that God the Father made the worlds by His Son. Two are mentioned here. Jesus created, but He Himself was not created.

The Bible says that Jesus was “made after the power of an endless life;.” (Heb.7:16), that is, He is eternal in nature, and was not created. This verse is in the context of an appointment, or designated role, rather than being in a “made” role, as in the context of being “created.” It is obvious from the Bible context of Heb.7:16, (and many other places), that the text is definitely referring to Jesus, as we read in a verse following: “by so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.” (Heb.7:22). Verse 22 was referring to verse 16 here, in any Bible translation.
