Hebrews 1

In this chapter our Saviourâ€™s glorious person is very plainly set before us, and it is made the ground of our faith, and a reason why we should give the more earnest heed to his words, lest at any time we should let them slip.

1, 2. God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son,

The best last is ever Godâ€™s rule. â€œThou hast kept the best wine until now.â€ Prophets are a very blessed means of communication, but how much more sure, how much more condescending is it for God to speak to us by his Son!

whom he hath appointed heir of all things,

To my mind, this is another wondrous encouragement to anyone who is seeking salvation. Christ has everything in his hand that is needed in order that he may save you, poor sinner. Sometimes, when a physician has a sick man before himâ€”suppose it is on board shipâ€”he may have to say to him, â€œI think I could cure your disease if I could get such-and-such a medicine; but, unfortunately, I have not the drug within my reach.â€ Never will the great Physician of souls have to talk like that, for the Father hath committed all things into his hands.

by whom also he made the worlds;

I see him standing, as it were, at the anvil of omnipotence, hammering out the worlds that fly off, like sparks, on every side at each stroke of his majestic arm. It was Christ who was thereâ€”â€œthe wisdom of God and the power of God,â€ as Paul calls himâ€”creating all things. I love to think that he who created all things is also our Savior, for then he can create in me a clean heart, and renew a right spirit within me; and if I need a complete new creationâ€”as I certainly doâ€”he is equal to the task.
