Neville Goddard on Exodus 23:1-2 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Exodus 23 in context

Scripture Focus

1Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness.

2Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment:

Exodus 23:1-2

Biblical Context

Exodus 23:1-2 warns not to spread false reports or join the crowd to do evil, and not to twist judgment by following many.

Neville's Inner Vision

You are not dealing with people but states of consciousness. A false report arises from fear, insecurity, and the habit of imagining yourself in companionship with the wicked. The multitude is not a crowd outside you; it is the tremor of a belief you have not settled in the I AM. To witness rightly you must align with the eternal self that does not waver with popularity. In the imagination, revise every claim that would condemn another, declaring: I am the witness of truth; I stand in justice, unaffected by the crowd. See the inner governor as the ground of all judgment, and let the fear of being ostracized dissolve into clarity. By living from the end—truth, integrity, and peace—you dissolve appearances of confusion and let right outcomes manifest as naturally as breath.

Practice This Now

Practice: when tempted to spread or repeat a rumor, close your eyes, assume 'I am the witness of truth,' revise the thought to 'no false report,' and feel the conviction of justice already real.
