Inner Eye for Eye Alignment

Exodus 21:24 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Exodus 21 in context

Scripture Focus

24Eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,
Exodus 21:24

Biblical Context

Exodus 21:24 states a proportional justice principle: injuries are to be met with a corresponding response. It codifies a standard of equal retaliation.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this line of scripture the eye for eye becomes not a dare for vengeance but a symbol of the inner law at work in consciousness. Each grievance you hold in memory is a projection of a state you have assumed; to retaliate is to confirm that state and invite the same recurrence into your life. God in Neville's sense is the I AM that you are, and your world is the outward sign of your inner decree. If you insist on retribution, you are merely insisting that your next moment mirror your current injured sense; change the assumption, and you change the appearance. The true justice is the balance you maintain in awareness: you can meet every hurt with the assurance of your wholeness, not with the urge to strike back. When you place forgiveness and release at the center of your life, you dissolve the condition that produced the injury. The law of life, by Neville's rule, is that imagination creates reality; so imagine yourself free, and the outer circumstances reform to reflect that inner state.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: Assume the feeling of complete inner balance now, and revise the memory of the offense by declaring I AM the law of harmony in this moment.
