Read 1 Kings 21 in context

Scripture Focus

9And she wrote in the letters, saying, Proclaim a fast, and set Naboth on high among the people:

10And set two men, sons of Belial, before him, to bear witness against him, saying, Thou didst blaspheme God and the king. And then carry him out, and stone him, that he may die.

1 Kings 21:9-10

Biblical Context

The passage shows Jezebel enacting a fast and two false witnesses to condemn Naboth, illustrating how public decree can be used to destroy a rightful inner life.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through Neville Goddard's lens, this tale reveals a state-manifestation within consciousness. Jezebel’s letters are not mere history but a method by which a crowd of belief seeks to decree a reality. Naboth stands for the true life of your soul—the rightful owner of your inner vineyard. The proclaimed fast signifies a narrowing of attention, an agreement to suspend judgment long enough for the crowd to echo a verdict. The two men, sons of Belial, are the whispering accusers within your mind—thoughts that pretend to witness against the truth and thereby accuse your God and inner throne. When the sentence is carried out, it signals a moment you allowed your inner life to be slain by a lie. Yet the I AM—the inner King and the living God within—endures beneath every external decree. The healing practice is to reverse the decree by assuming you are the witness to truth, and you authorize a new verdict in your own heart: Naboth’s life returns, the inner vineyard is protected, and the reign of your I AM remains unshaken.
