But Jesus claimed to be God.

No, he said he was the son of God.

John 8:58 Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am."

John 10:30 "I and the Father are one."

John 14:8-13 Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us." Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works. Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves."

Wrong. Read Exodus 3:14 and John 8:58. Jesus used the same NAME to refer to Himself as God did in revealing Himself to Moses.

Before Moses was, I am There is a reason the Jews picked up stones to stone Jesus immediately on hearing that statement Jesus applied the unique and holy name of God to Himself That was a direct claim of divinity
