Neville Goddard on Exodus 2:8-10 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Exodus 2 in context

Scripture Focus

8And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. And the maid went and called the child's mother.

9And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her, Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages. And the woman took the child, and nursed it.

10And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. And she called his name Moses: and she said, Because I drew him out of the water.

Exodus 2:8-10

Biblical Context

Pharaoh's daughter finds the infant, has him nursed by his mother, and he grows to be her son. This mirrors the inner act of adoption and naming, where a new self is drawn forth by grace.

Neville's Inner Vision

Exodus 2:8–10 becomes a liturgy for inner birth. Moses is not merely a child but a state of consciousness drawn up from the waters of your subconscious by the I AM you awaken. Pharaoh's daughter stands for a commanding, gracious awareness that declares, Go, and then calls forward the nurse who will sustain the new self until it can walk as a member of the inner court. The nurse represents your own inner receptivity—the quiet, faithful energy that nourishes a revelation until it matures. When the child grows and is named by the daughter, you are naming a new identity that has been formed within you by grace. The assertion 'Because I drew him out of the water' is the core: you, not some external queen, have called forth this reality from the depths of mind into the visible world. Your consciousness has found a way to surface the gift by quiet, faithful assumption. Now the practical: believe this is already true; let the feeling of the wish realized wash over you; quietly observe the inner signs of adoption and claim them as yours.

Practice This Now

Assume the end: I am the grace-adopted self, drawn from the waters of mind; feel the welcome and call forth the new identity. If doubts intrude, revise to 'I am already this person now.'
