Ahem – “the NT writers” are not Jesus. When are you thinking of Jesus “rifl[ing] through the so called jewish mailbox and attribut[ing] God's word to everyone [sic]”?
I think Jesus claimed to be the "Lord" in "my Lord" in Psalm 110. He claimed to be "the Son of the living God" when he commended Peter for having this revealed to him by God. He told the women at the well"I am He" meaning the messiah. He claimed he would rise on the third day , fulfilling Isa 53 where it says he would know his decendents even though he would be cut off or killed. He started his ministry by quoting Isa 66 where he said he came to set the captives free. He quoted Deut when asked which was the most important commandment "Love the Lord" instead of listing the 10 commandments, he claimed to be Lord of the Sabbath and said it was lawful to do good on the Sabbath implying it was no diifferent then any other day. He transformed some OT laws in the Sermon on the Mount like "love your enemies."
