Indirectly
The First Bank of the United States was opposed by Presidents Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, who both believed it to be unconstitutional.
He argued that Congress had the power to create a bank because the Constitution granted the federal government authority to do anything "necessary and proper" to carry out its constitutional functions
Hamilton was a Federalist who believed in a country with a strong federal government. For example, he wrote the Public Report on a National Bank, in which he suggested that the national government should create a bank to help get rid of Revolutionary War debt, even though some argued that it was a breach of the Constitution.

The First Bank of the United States was opposed by Presidents Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, who both believed it to be unconstitutional.
He didn't because he believed in strict construction of he constitution, which led him to believe that anything that is not written clearly in the constitution should not be done. Thus he opposed the creation of the bank because the constitution did not specifically grant power to Congress to create one. Alexander Hamilton favor the bank, because he believed in lose construction of the Constitution, and according to the "Elastic clause", the congress can do whatever that is for the good of the people. Thus Hamilton was for the creation of the national bank.
Alexander Hamilton defended the establishment of the First Bank of the United States by referencing the Necessary and Proper Clause of the Constitution, found in Article I, Section 8. He argued that this clause granted Congress the authority to create a bank as a means to carry out its enumerated powers, such as regulating commerce and managing national finances. Hamilton believed that the bank was essential for the effective functioning of the government and the economy.
The Constitution gives Congress power to do useful things. This does not constitute a dangerous interpretation of the Constitution. Powers not specifically given in the Constitution can be implied.

The Bank of the United States
In 1789, Alexander Hamilton wanted Congress to create a national bank. He believed that a national bank would help stabilize the American economy, facilitate government borrowing, and manage the nation's finances effectively. Hamilton argued that it would also provide a uniform currency and promote economic growth through the expansion of credit. This proposal was part of his broader vision for a strong central government and a robust financial system.
Granting Congress any power not explicitly granted by the Constitution will remove all limits on its power other than what Congress itself believes to be the good of the nation.
James Madison
Because the states wrote and ratified the Constitution that way. Congress did not create itself.
