I think not. It just tell us how rapidly it is expanding at

Wrong conclusion! Since galaxies far away are receding the faster than
those close to us, Hubble's law also says that those close to us are
receding more slowly than those farther away. So, since in the very
early universe the galaxies were closely separated, Hubble's law says
they were receding from each other more slowly than today. AG
That doesn't follow. That galaxies(near) are receding more slowly than
distant galaxies(distant) now, does not imply they were receding more
slowly in the past. In fact you can invert the argument: assuming they
were all together in the past, those receding faster will now be further
away.
