Don't forget that Locke has gone through quite a emotional and
spiritual journey. He woke up on the island to find that his
paralysis was miraculously gone. At first, *he* was the one who
insisted on entering the numbers at the Swam station, but when his
faith was tested by what he found on video at the Pearl station, he
lost faith, and stopped Eko from entering the numbers - with
disastrous consequences. He is now a true, true believer in the power
of the Island, and sees Jacob as its spokesman.
