Greeks 10:2
2
For God loved men, for whom he made the world, to whom he subjected all things in the earth, to whom he gave reason, to whom mind, whom alone he permitted to look upward to himself, whom he formed in his own image. To them he sent his only begotten Son, to them he has promised the kingdom in heaven, and will give it to those who have loved him.[fn]

kingdom in heaven: this is not equivalent to Matthew's 'kingdom of heaven' (Greek: τῶν οὐρανῶν / *tōn ouranōn*, genitive). Here the author uses a locative construction (ἐν / *en* with the dative), giving the phrase a spatial meaning: the kingdom located in heaven. See Lienhard (1970).
