Neville Goddard on Exodus 16:7-10 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Exodus 16 in context

Scripture Focus

7And in the morning, then ye shall see the glory of the LORD; for that he heareth your murmurings against the LORD: and what are we, that ye murmur against us?

8And Moses said, This shall be, when the LORD shall give you in the evening flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full; for that the LORD heareth your murmurings which ye murmur against him: and what are we? your murmurings are not against us, but against the LORD.

9And Moses spake unto Aaron, Say unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, Come near before the LORD: for he hath heard your murmurings.

10And it came to pass, as Aaron spake unto the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and, behold, the glory of the LORD appeared in the cloud.

Exodus 16:7-10

Biblical Context

Plain sense: The people murmur, and God hears. Moses announces the daily provision, and the glory of the LORD appears as the cloud rests over them.

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville view, the Exodus events are not distant happenings but your inner weather. The murmurings reveal a state of lack within your own consciousness; God is not out there apart from you but the I AM within, hearing and answering as your life. When you turn toward the wilderness with a new inner posture—assurance, gratitude, and the felt sense of being supplied—the apparent bread and quail manifest as conditions you now recognize and enjoy. The morning bread represents daily nourishment that your state now commands; the evening flesh signals fullness when you rest in the end you seek. The cloud that appears is the visible sign of your awareness, the glory you can only "see" as you refuse to identify with lack. The spiritual trick is simple: assume the end, feel it real, and let the outer events follow as a natural consequence of your inner decree. Your murmuring dissolves into trust, and the Lord’s presence becomes your interior seeing.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Assume the end now—bread and fullness—feel it real in your chest as you breathe, then rest in the I AM, letting the sense of supply appear in outer life.
