Inner Consequences Of Bloodguilt

2 Kings 21:16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Kings 21 in context

Scripture Focus

16Moreover Manasseh shed innocent blood very much, till he had filled Jerusalem from one end to another; beside his sin wherewith he made Judah to sin, in doing that which was evil in the sight of the LORD.
2 Kings 21:16

Biblical Context

Manasseh's reign involved extensive shed of innocent blood in Jerusalem, compounding Judah's misdirection away from the LORD.

Neville's Inner Vision

Let this verse be understood as a mirror of your own inner weather. The bloodshed is not merely a political act, but the spilling of inner life through cruel thoughts and hardened attitudes. When Manasseh filled Jerusalem with blood, the mind was saturated with fear, accusation, and domination—an inner atmosphere that makes life appear as fight and cover. The sin that caused Judah to sin is the belief that one can wield power over others without consequence, a separation from the I AM that governs all. In Neville’s grammar, God is the I AM awareness within you; the outer city mirrors the inner kingdom. To alter the outer consequences, you must revise the inner vision, replace violence with compassion, and decide that you are the ruler of your own consciousness. When you imagine the Self as loving, just, and unafraid, the imagined city shifts, and the former bloodguilt loses its hold. Remember: imagination creates reality, and responsibility begins with awareness that you are the I AM who pens every scene.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, assume the I AM as governing presence, and revise the scene by silently replacing Jerusalem’s blood with peace and justice. Feel it real: I am the I AM; I choose life; redesign the scene in your mind.
