Hebrews 1:2 Context
1God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; 3Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; 4Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. 5For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

Bible commentary
Wesley's Notes for Hebrews 1:2
1:2 Whom he hath appointed heir of all things - After the name of Son, his inheritance is mentioned. God appointed him the heir long before he made the worlds, #Eph 3:11|; Prov 8:22, &c. The Son is the firstborn, born before all things: the heir is a term relating to the creation which followed, #Heb 1:6|. By whom he also made the worlds - Therefore the Son was before all worlds. His glory reaches from everlasting to everlasting, though God spake by him to us only in these last days.
People's Bible Notes for Hebrews 1:2
Heb 1:2 Hath in these last days. "At the end of these days" (Revised Version). At the end of the Jewish dispensation. Spoken unto us by [his] Son. "Last of all he sent his Son" (Mt 27:37). The importance of the message is shown by the messenger. No longer an inspired prophet, but, instead, the Son of God is the speaker. Whom he hath appointed heir of all things. The Father delivered all things into the hands of the Son (Ac 2:36 Joh 17:10). "The heir . . . is lord of all" (Ga 4:1). By whom also he made the worlds. Through his agency or instrumentality. Christ, the Logos, is represented as God's medium in creation. See PNT "Joh 1:3".
