Neville Goddard on Exodus 16:13-16 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Exodus 16 in context

Scripture Focus

13And it came to pass, that at even the quails came up, and covered the camp: and in the morning the dew lay round about the host.

14And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness there lay a small round thing, as small as the hoar frost on the ground.

15And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna: for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the LORD hath given you to eat.

16This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded, Gather of it every man according to his eating, an omer for every man, according to the number of your persons; take ye every man for them which are in his tents.

Exodus 16:13-16

Biblical Context

Exodus 16:13-16 describes quail arriving by evening and a morning dew revealing manna, the Lord's bread for daily eating, with instructions to gather according to each person's needs.

Neville's Inner Vision

Exodus 16:13–16 invites you to witness the inner provision that your I AM already furnishes. The quails and the dew are symbols of how nourishment arrives when you consent to a state of consciousness that is whole and unconditioned. The bread that the Lord gives is not a thing you chase from without but a recognition that your own awareness is the source of every meal. The directive to gather “an omer for every man” becomes a practical revision: decide how much you will feed your life today by your thought, then release the rest. Your belief that you must earn it fades as you realize you are the eater and the field. Manna lies on the ground of your mind, small and ordinary in appearance, yet cosmic in function. When you stop doubting and align with the I AM, the grace enters, and your needs are met in exact proportion to your inner state, not to external scarcity.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: In a moment of quiet, declare 'I AM the bread of God here and now,' and feel the inner meal filling you. Revise any lack by imagining a daily portion allotted to your household, and let that certainty linger as you go about your day.
