Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son (Hebrews 1:1-2).
In a previous lesson we noted from Hebrews 1:1 that God spoke through the prophets. But the writer of Hebrews had an even more important lesson to teach. He wished to show how God has spoken to us today. He did not mean that the old prophets have nothing to say to us. Hebrews itself has many quotes and lessons from Old Testament prophets. So the writer clearly means that God’s main way of speaking to us today is “by His Son.” According to the book of Hebrews, “His Son” is Jesus Christ (Hebrews 3:1-6).
