What is the purpose of language?

Les explains that grammar matters because the whole idea of language is to communicate, and that is what the word 'Word' implies. In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God, and the Word was God; the triune Godhead was complete and in absolute consensus. All things were made by Him—by the Word. There had to be a person of the Godhead who would communicate with whatever creation was called out of. Les suggests it was God Himself, noting that God talks to Himself, just as people sometimes talk to themselves. He also mentions Martin Luther's conclusion about Christ's statements from the cross: it was God speaking to God. The Word was the communicator; He spoke the power of creation, and Hebrews will show it is the Word, the Son of God, Christ, who has spoken in this book. This is the Word of the very person of the Godhead who is the communicator, God the Son.
