I'm new at Java as well, but I may be able to help.
So there are certain classes and static methods that we are able to access through specific Java packages. The .getMessage() method is from the java.lang package, and I believe this package is already accessible without the need to declare anything. For example, we don't have to create a System class to use System.out.println because the package that contains this class has already been imported for us (java.lang).
