Read 2 Chronicles 22 in context

Scripture Focus

9And he sought Ahaziah: and they caught him, (for he was hid in Samaria,) and brought him to Jehu: and when they had slain him, they buried him: Because, said they, he is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the LORD with all his heart. So the house of Ahaziah had no power to keep still the kingdom.

10But when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal of the house of Judah.

2 Chronicles 22:9-10

Biblical Context

Ahaziah's line is slain and buried because he sought the LORD with all his heart. Athaliah then destroys the royal seed, attempting to erase Judah's royal line.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through Neville Goddard's lens, the verses become a drama of inner states. The 'son of Jehoshaphat who sought the LORD with all his heart' represents the inner self aligned with the I AM. His slaying by Jehu marks the necessary removal of old self-images that no longer serve the kingdom within. 'The house of Ahaziah had no power to keep still the kingdom' signals that once the divine alignment is asserted, external appearances lose their grip and the outer world yields to inner reality. Athaliah's rise, pursuing the royal seed, embodies fear and resistance of the old mind when a true possibility is near. Yet the seed remains hidden, protected by fidelity to covenant loyalty, until the right moment for its revelation. The inner scene shifts from destruction to quiet expectancy: the true ruler—the greater I AM within—reigns as imagination refuses to abandon the seed of life. You are asked to notice that every upheaval in the outer world mirrors an inward rearrangement toward the kingdom that cannot be killed.
