Can you explain the roles they both had and cite Bible verses to explain the role differences?
JEHOVAH IS THE CREATOR OF ALL THAT EXISTS
REVELATION 4:11
“You are worthy, Jehovah our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power, because you created all things, and because of your will they came into existence and were created.”
JEHOVAH ALONE HAS THE POSITION OF CREATOR SINCE HE NEEDED NO ASSISTANCE AND IS THE SOURCE AND ORIGINATOR OF ALL LIFE
ISAIAH 44: 24
"Thus said Jehovah, thy redeemer, And thy framer from the womb: 'I am Jehovah, doing all things, Stretching out the heavens by Myself, Spreading out the earth -- who is with Me?" - Young's Literal Translation
NEHEMIAH 9: 6 - American Standard Version
Thou art Jehovah, even thou alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all things that are thereon, the seas and all that is in them, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee
ISAIAH 44: 24
With you [YHWH]is the source of life; By your light we can see light
=================================================================
JESUS IS JEHOVAH'S FIRST CREATION
PROVERBE 8:22
Jehovah produced me as the beginning of his way, the earliest of his achievements of long ago
He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation
JESUS IS YHWH JEHOVAH'S WORKER
PROVERB 8:30
Then I was beside him as a master worker. I was the one he was especially fond of day by day; I rejoiced before him all the time

AN INSTRUMENT THROUGH WHICH THE FATHER'S CREATIVITY IS EXPRESSED
COLOSSIANS 1:16b
All other things have been created through him and for him.
JESUS FOLLOWS INSTRUCTIONS AND CAN THEREFORE TAKE NO CREDIT AS A CREATOR OR A CO-CREATOR
JOHN 8:28
Jesus then said: “After you have lifted up the Son of man, then you will know that I am he and that I do nothing of my own initiative; but just as the Father taught me, I speak these things.
