The authors of both documents believed that Jesus is God. We can see this in Hebrews by comparing Hebrews 1:10-12 - which is a quote from the Psalm 102 which the author of Hebrews says describes Jesus - with Psalm 102 itself, which in vv 22-27 clearly and indisputably teaches that the being being described in that very same passage is God, YHWH, "Jehovah". We can see this in Colossians by reading the same passage you have quoted, but more of the passage is better https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?se... Clearly both authors believed that Jesus is God.
It doesn't when read in context. Hebrews 1:1-2 tells us "In the past God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe." The idea is called the Logos.
In Hellenistic Judaism, the logos was the first born of the Jewish god, and responsible for the creation. It was the highest of intermediary beings between a perfect god and the material world. It is not the Jewish god, but a representation of him, as described in Hebrews 1:1-3.
Jesus is the personification of the logos, not the Jewish god. So they are saying the same thing, God made Jesus who then made everything.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
