Glimpse

why must it be “take a glimpse into the future”, “glimpse the future” but not “ glimpse into the future”?


glimpse here is intentionally being used as a verb

All three might be heard, for example: Take a glimpse into the future and tell what you see. Just looking closely at what's happening today, I can already glimpse the future. Attending that conference on America in the year 2050 has given me a glimpse into the future.
