The Bow Within Judah's Inner Arc
2 Samuel 1:18 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Samuel 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse records a kingly command to instruct Judah's people in the use of the bow, noting that this guidance is written in the book of Jasher. It emphasizes tradition and preparedness as a form of readiness.
Neville's Inner Vision
Seen through the I AM and the imagination, the bow stands for the directed will of consciousness. Judah represents the inner house of praise, a part of you that seeks alignment with purpose. The command to teach the bow is a call to educate your inner self in deliberate, pointed action. The reference to the book of Jasher signals that truth already resides in memory and in the law of your inner life; you are not seeking new power but reawakening a remembered discipline. To practice, assume you already wield a precise aim, and revise any sense of lack. Feel the release as you would an arrow finding its mark, letting the sensation teach your mind what is possible. Your inner Judah is trained not by dogma but by steady, conscious assumption that your desire is already fulfilled.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume you already possess the exact realization you seek; visualize teaching your inner self to use the bow, and feel the quiet satisfaction of the hit. Then rest in the I AM and release the intention with a calm breath.
