Hubble's Law states that (more or less) the distance to a galaxy is a constant multiple of the distance to that galaxy. For example, if one galaxy is moving away from us at three times the speed of another galaxy, then that means it is also three times as far away. The Law indicates that the Universe is expanding and had a beginning. Before Hubble's Law, many astronomers thought that the Universe did not have a beginning (it always existed).
