Neville Goddard on Ecclesiastes 5:8-9 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ecclesiastes 5 in context

Scripture Focus

8If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of judgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter: for he that is higher than the highest regardeth; and there be higher than they.

9Moreover the profit of the earth is for all: the king himself is served by the field.

Ecclesiastes 5:8-9

Biblical Context

The passage says not to marvel at oppression and corrupt judgments, for a higher power governs all. It also declares that the earth's profit is for everyone and that even the king is sustained by the land.

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider oppression and perverted judgment in the outer province as a projection of your inner state. The verse points to a power higher than the highest—the I AM—that governs every scene. When you identify with the fear of injustice, you obscure the truth; when you align with the I AM, you reclaim sovereignty. The earth’s profit being for all translates as a living certainty that abundance circulates through your inner life, and the king is served by the field because your inner authority is sustained by your daily thoughts and imaginal acts. Rather than contesting circumstances, revise your inner picture until justice and wealth are felt as present realities. You are the consciousness that imagines, and through that imagining you make real a world that reflects your state. The outer is a mirror; your true king sits quietly within, and every field bows to the vibration you continuously hold.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, breathe into the I AM, and declare inwardly that oppression is only a state and abundance is already yours. Then revise your scene to feel sovereign justice and prosperous flow as real now.
