Exegesis
The object of belief is given by the prepositional phrase eis ton erchomenon {εἰς τὸν ἐρχόμενον | eis tón er-khó-me-non} ‘into the coming one,’ further qualified by met’ auton {μετ᾽ αὐτὸν | met’ au-tón} ‘after him,’ indicating temporal succession after John.
In context — Acts 19:4
And Paul said, “John baptized with a baptism of repentance for the people, saying to the people that they should believe in the One coming after him—that is, in Jesus .”
