Hebrews 1:1–3

The Nature of the Son

1 Long ago God spoke a to the fathers by the prophets b at different times and in different ways. c 2 In these last days, d He has spoken to us by ⌊His⌋ Son. God has appointed Him heir of all things and made the universe e f through Him. 3 The Son is the radiance g of God’s glory and the exact expression h of His nature, sustaining all things by His powerful word. After making purification for sins, i He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high. j k
