User Notes     See all annotated entries

μέλλω in Heb. 11:8 does not have a sense of immediacy (about to), but rather eventuality (going to) or intention (intend to), and perhaps none of it's usages in Hebrews has a sense of immediacy:

Hebrews 11:8
Πίστει καλούμενος Ἀβραὰμ ὑπήκουσεν ἐξελθεῖν εἰς τόπον ὃν ἤμελλεν λαμβάνειν εἰς κληρονομίαν, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν μὴ ἐπιστάμενος ποῦ ἔρχεται.
[By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place he would later receive as an inheritance, and he went out without understanding where he was going. (NET)]
