Neville Goddard on Esther 3:13 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Esther 3 in context

Scripture Focus

13And the letters were sent by posts into all the king's provinces, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish, all Jews, both young and old, little children and women, in one day, even upon the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, and to take the spoil of them for a prey.

Esther 3:13

Biblical Context

Esther 3:13 records a royal command to destroy the Jews across all provinces, a sweeping judgment and threat. It embodies the fear of annihilation and the pressure of collective fate.

Neville's Inner Vision

When you hear of a decree of destruction, hear it as an inner voice in your own mind threatening a part of you. The king's provinces are the rooms of consciousness; the letters are thoughts that claim power over your life. The Jews symbolize your essential nature—the quiet truth that remains even in fear—that is being targeted by a belief. In Neville's view, the decree shows that you are not defined by circumstance but by awareness. The remedy is to refuse to yield to the thought; assume the I AM is unassailable, and that you are not a victim but the witness of all events. Revise the reality by declaring that this supposed day of ruin is but a dream dissolving in light, and that your true self abides, undefeated and at peace.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine the decree being carried to every inner province, dissolving into bright light. Revise it with I AM, and feel safety and power returning to your heart.
