Esther 2:1-4 Inner King Awakening

Esther 2:1-4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Esther 2 in context

Scripture Focus

1After these things, when the wrath of king Ahasuerus was appeased, he remembered Vashti, and what she had done, and what was decreed against her.
2Then said the king's servants that ministered unto him, Let there be fair young virgins sought for the king:
3And let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather together all the fair young virgins unto Shushan the palace, to the house of the women, unto the custody of Hege the king's chamberlain, keeper of the women; and let their things for purification be given them:
4And let the maiden which pleaseth the king be queen instead of Vashti. And the thing pleased the king; and he did so.
Esther 2:1-4

Biblical Context

After the king's anger subsides, he seeks a new queen by gathering virgins for purification. The one who pleases him becomes queen.

Neville's Inner Vision

Esther 2:1-4 unfolds as a map of the inner kingdoms. The king's wrath is the last tremor of a state you no longer identify with. Vashti is the old self that would not bend to your inner law; when that image is set aside, the king's servants—your inner thoughts—propose gathering naturally refined states of consciousness. Each virgin represents a quality you are willing to purify and mature for the throne of awareness. The house of the women and Hege the keeper of the women signify the regimen of purification, the discipline by which attention is narrowed to what truly serves the I AM. And the maiden who pleases the king—when a state of consciousness harmonizes with the I AM—becomes queen, the new you, the unified awareness. The lesson is simple: all power is within, and the decree to crown a queen is the moment you choose a new state and allow it to rule. The outer 'appointment' echoes your inner consent to a higher rulership.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the feeling of your desired inner state as already present; picture the 'king' approving you; repeat a short revision: 'The old Vashti is finished; I am the queen now'.
