GENHQHTE

Hebrews 4:3 For we who have believed enter that rest, just as He has said,
"AS I SWORE IN MY WRATH, THEY SHALL NOT ENTER MY REST," although His works
were finished from the foundation of the world.

KAITOI TON ERGON APO KATABOLES KOSMOU GENHQENTON – aorist passive participle
genitive neuter plural

Ah 
 the fascinating genitive absolute construction. But still very passive
in concept. The works did not finish themselves. God finished the works.
