Hēkō stresses arrival — not just being on the way but having come. Hebrews 10:7 quotes the Messiah’s words: “Behold, I have come (hēkō) to do your will, O God.”

The same verb later anchors the church’s expectation of Jesus’ return. Christian faith looks both backward to a Christ who has come and forward to a Christ who will come — and uses the same verb for both.
