Inner Justice and Provision
Exodus 21:21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Exodus 21 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Exodus 21:21 says that if the master delays punishment for a day or two, the servant is not punished because the servant is his money. The lines hint at measured value and ownership within the social order of the text.
Neville's Inner Vision
In Neville's perspective, the slave represents a state of consciousness within you, a portion you have treated as separate from your I AM. The clause 'not punished... for he is his money' signals that your inner worth is tied to consciousness, not external power. When you permit a delay in external outcomes, you are learning that the outer scene reflects your inner disposition, not fixed fate. Righteousness and justice arise as you acknowledge that your wealth resides in awareness, and that you are the steward of your life through the I AM. The practice is to release the belief that punishment or lack thereof comes from without, and instead recognize that provision springs from your inner alignment. By valuing yourself as the source of wealth, you redefine law as the simple recognition of your own state, inviting abundance as the natural expression of your consciousness.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the feeling of instant wealth: 'I am wealth; I am provision; I am the I AM.' Let that sense rest for a moment and observe how the sensation of lack dissolves into inner abundance.
