Is Jesus the only one who had miracles in the Bible?

According to the Bible

Jesus' dead body never caused for any dead to come back to life, but Elisha's did:

"Elisha died and was buried.  Now Moabite raiders used to enter the country every spring.  Once while some Israelites were burying a man, suddenly they saw a band of raiders; so they threw the man's body into Elisha's tomb. When the body touched Elisha'sbones, the man came to life and stood up on his feet.   Hazael king of Aram oppressed Israel throughout the reign of Jehoahaz.  (From the NIV Bible, 2 Kings 13:20-22)

Creating life:

Jesus only restored life, but never actually created one from scratch.Moses, however, did create a live snake from a wooden stick:

"Then the LORD said to him, "What is that in your hand?"  "A staff," he replied.  The LORD said, "Throw it on the ground."  Moses threw it on the ground and it became a snake, andhe ran from it.  Then the LORD said to him, "Reach out your hand and take it by the tail."  So Moses reached out and took hold of the snake and it turned back into a staff in his hand.  (From the NIVBible, Exodus 4:2-4)

_Elisha prayed to the LORD , "Strike these people with blindness."So he struck them with blindness, as Elisha had asked.Elisha told them, "This is not the road and this is not the city. Follow me, and I will lead you to the man you are looking for."And he led them to Samaria.After they entered the city, Elisha said, "LORD , open the eyes of these men so they can see."Then the LORD opened their eyes and they looked (From the NIV Bible, 2 Kings 6:15-24)

Healing leprosy:

"Elisha sent a messenger to say to him, "Go, wash yourself seven times in the Jordan, and your flesh will be restored and you will be cleansed."  But Naaman went away angry and said, "I thought that he would surely comeout to me and stand and call on the name of the LORD his God, wave his hand over the spot and cure me of my leprosy.Are not Abana and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than any of the waters of Israel?Couldn't I wash in them and be cleansed?" So he turned and went off in a rage.  Naaman's servants went to him and said, "My father, if the prophet had told you to do some great thing, would you not havedone it?How much more, then, when he tells you, 'Wash and be cleansed'!"   So he went down and dipped himself in the Jordan seven times, as the man of God had told him, and his flesh was restored and became clean likethat of a young boy.   (From the NIV Bible, 2 Kings 5:10-14)

Feeding hundreds with few loafs of bread:

"A man came from Baal Shalishah, bringing the man of God twenty loaves of barley bread baked from the first ripe grain, along with some heads of new grain. "Give it to the people to eat," Elisha said.  "How can Iset this before a hundred men?his servant asked.But Elisha answered, "Give it to the people to eat. For this is what the LORD says: 'They will eat and have some left over.'"  Then he set it before them, and they ate and had some left over, according to the word of the LORD.(From the NIV Bible, 2 Kings 4:42-44)

So as we clearly see from the above verses, Jesus' Miracles were not unique.Therefore, they can never be used to prove that he is the Creator of the Universe.
