Berean Standard Bible
“For no such prophecy was ever brought forth by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.”
Peter has just recalled the Transfiguration, when he heard the Father's voice honoring Jesus on the mountain (1:16-18). He then points his readers to the prophetic writings as a message even more firmly established.
