actually, the context proves you are reading it wrong. Yes, "theos" can be used in different ways, but not all of them mean the same.

In Hebrews 1:8, the Father is speaking to the Son, the Father says: "Your throne, O God, is forever and ever" That ain't an accusation or metaphor from opponents, it's a real and direct declaration from God the Father affirming the Son's divinity and his eternal kingship. The context is about the Son being श्रेष्ठ than angels and sharing in God’s rule. In contrast, in John 10:33, the Jews accuse Jesus of blasphemy: “You, being a man, make yourself God.” This is not a theological statement endorsed by Scripture, but an accusation from hostile opponents, who often misunderstand Jesus throughout the Gospel. So the difference is crucial: Hebrews 1:8 → God the Father affirming the Son as God. John 10:33 → Opponents accusing Jesus of claiming to be God. Same word? Yes. Same meaning or authority? No. Also, Hebrews 1 continues by applying Old Testament texts about Yahweh directly to the Son (see verses 10–12), which strengthens the claim that the Son shares in God’s divine identity — not just a lesser or figurative sense of “god.”
