Why didn't God speak through His Son from the start?

Hi ~
Years ago when I was studying Hebrews, I pondered Hebrews 1:1-2a
“Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son”
And I wondered, “Why didn’t God speak through His Son from the very beginning?”
Andrew Murray provided a new thought for me to ponder:
“The Old Testament shadows prepared mankind for that great revelation by revealing his own completely wretched state before a holy Deity and by giving him a taste of that incredible love that finally burst on the scene in the person of Jesus Christ.”
Don’t you just love those words?
“That incredible love that finally burst on the scene in the person of Jesus Christ.”
What a glorious truth to carry with us!
I pray that as you ponder it in the days ahead, it will bring you comfort and joy.
Blessed Advent to you!
Rebecca
