God has spoken His definitive word in His Son. All previous words given by the prophets were preparatory and partial.
The Letter to the Hebrews encourages us not to abandon
Jesus when difficult times come. It does so by emphasizing the superiority of what
God has done in His “Son.” The Word “spoken” in Jesus is superior
to the earlier revelations provided “to the fathers in the prophets.” The
Letter compares the Levitical system with its incomplete rituals to the “better”
priesthood and “once for all” sacrifice of the “Son,” Jesus
Christ.
