Exegesis
The hoti-clause ho lalei ginetai {ὅτι ὃ λαλεῖ γίνεται | hóti ho laleî gínetai} presents the content of belief as a reality to be realized, and the future estai autō {ἔσται αὐτῷ | éstai autō̂} serves as the apodosis, promising the believer’s experience.
In context — Mark 11:23
Truly, I say to you that anyone who says to this mountain, “Arise and hurl yourself into the sea,” and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says is taking place, it will be granted to him.
