Neville Goddard on Exodus 13:6-7 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Exodus 13 in context

Scripture Focus

6Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, and in the seventh day shall be a feast to the LORD.

7Unleavened bread shall be eaten seven days; and there shall no leavened bread be seen with thee, neither shall there be leaven seen with thee in all thy quarters.

Exodus 13:6-7

Biblical Context

Exodus 13:6-7 commands seven days of unleavened bread and a seventh-day feast, with no leaven to be seen in your quarters. It frames purity and obedience as a covenant sign.

Neville's Inner Vision

Exodus presents a calendar of inner states. The seven days of unleavened bread are not mere observance but the discipline of keeping the mind free of leaven—the puffed-up ideas that swell the ego. The 'LORD' to which the feast is offered is the I AM within, the pure awareness that witnesses all thoughts. When you imagine your quarters free of leaven, you practice a shift: you refuse to mix fear, pride, or doubt with your daily bread, and you align with a single, unadorned reality—you are awareness itself. This is obedience not to an external law but to the covenant of your true self. The removal of leaven is a revision of habit: each day, declare that your inner house is clean, that no thought of lack or separation can reside as long as you dwell in the present I AM. The seventh day, a feast to the LORD, is the celebration of having returned to that original purity, where God and you are one.

Practice This Now

Assume you are the unleavened bread of truth, free of ego. Revise any sense of lack and feel your inner quarters bathed in the feast of pure awareness.
