Spoke In Time Past Part 2

Hebrews 1:1-2 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Had in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he had appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds

‘In time past unto the fathers by the prophets.’ Moses was the author of the Law – Genesis to Deuteronomy –  he was also called a prophet for God commanded Him to write these first books (Ex. 3:8,12,17-22; 4:8-9,14-17,21-23; 6:1-8; 7:3-5,9,15-19; 8:2-4,10-11,16,20-23; 9:1-5,8-9,13-19,29; 10:2-6,29; 11:1,4-9; 12:12-13,23-27; 13:5,19; 14:3-4,13-18,26; 15:13-18; 16:4-8,12; 17:6,14-16; 19:5-6,9-13; 22:23-24; 23:20-33; 33:1-3,14; 34:10-11,24; Leviticus 18:24-28; 26:3-45; Numbers 10:9; 11:17-20,23; 14:21-24,28-35; 16:29-30; 17:5; 33:55-56; Deut. 1:35-38; 2:24-25,31; 3:2,21-22,27-28; 4:10,21-22,25-31; 6:10-12; 7:20-24; 8:3,10-20; 9:3-6; 11:13-32; 12:1-32; 15:4-6; 17:14-20; 18:15,18-19; 28:1-68; 29:17-28; 30:1-10,15-20; 31:1-8,16-23,27-29; 32:19-32; 33:6-29; 34:4). He also wrote Psalms 90 and 91.

The “Law and the Prophets” (Matt. 5:17; 11:13; Acts 13:15) is another name for the Old Testament as well as “the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms;” (Luke 24:25, 44) “the Law of the Lord;” (Ps. 1:2) “the Book of the Lord;” (Isa. 34:16) “the Scripture;” (Mk. 15:28; Jn. 7:38; 2Tim. 3:16-17) “the Scriptures;” (Luke 24:27, 32; John 5:39; Acts 17:11) “the Holy Scriptures;” (Rom. 1:2; 2Tim. 3:15) “the Promises;” (Rom. 9:4-5; 15:8) “the Oracles of God;” (Rom. 3:2; Heb. 5:12; 1Pet. 4:11) “the Lively (living) Oracles;” (Acts 7:38) “the Word of God;” (Mark 7:13; Rom. 10:17; Heb. 4:12) “the Sword of the Spirit;” (Eph. 6:17) “the Old and New Testament;” (Luke 22:20; 2 Cor. 3:6-15; Heb. 9:15) “the Word of Christ;” (Col. 3:16) “the Word of Life;” (Phil. 2:16) “the Scripture of Truth;” (Dan. 10:21) “the Word of Truth;” (2 Tim. 2:15) and “the Gospel of Christ.” (Rom. 1:16)

‘By’ [Greek: en] IN the prophets. The Holy Spirit indwelt the prophets and spoke through them in the same manner He dwells in men today. It testifies to being in union with, being consecrated to the same end – one in mind, purpose, and life. Men can become one in spirit with God when joined to Him in consecration (1Cor. 6:17).
