Biblical Context

Exodus 21:15 declares that striking one's father or mother shall be punished by death.

Neville's Inner Vision

To the awakened mind, Exodus 21:15 speaks not of a distant penalty but of a symbol for the inner order you live by. The ‘father’ and the ‘mother’ are not only people; they are the two forms of inner authority and nourishing feeling within your consciousness—the disciplines of thought and the care you offer your images. When you ‘smite’ them, you reject the very framework that holds your world together, and the death spoken of is the ending of an old consciousness that believes it must rebel against inner law. The verse calls you to a deeper obedience: not to fear an outside judge, but to surrender to the I AM that is the sole governor of your life. When you align with that inner law, thoughts, feelings, and circumstances reorganize from the inside out; you no longer defend or resist, you simply dwell in the truth that you are the I AM. The result is a new creation— an end to the old pattern and a birth into a life governed by the timeless awareness within you.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine the inner father and mother as symbols of inner authority and nurture; declare, I AM the authority here, and I revise the old picture to align with the I AM within.
