Inner Lineage Of Ezra
Ezra 2:45-48 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezra 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Ezra 2:45-48 presents a roster of names—families listed in a community returning to its land. It signals belonging, dignity, and the shared human lineage within a sacred community.
Neville's Inner Vision
Your true self is not numbered by outward names but by the I AM that unsleeps them all. The Ezra list is not simply a census; it is the inner catalog of states of consciousness by which you compose a living community in awareness. Each 'child'—Lebanah, Hagabah, Akkub, and the rest—stands for a quality you harbor: fidelity, courage, humility, energy, patience, belonging. When you turn your attention inward and acknowledge these names as your own, the sense of separation dissolves; you realize you are one family in God, bound by common dignity. The practice is quiet and simple: imagine each name as an aspect of your being and claim it as your own I AM. By doing so you revise the self from lack to fullness, from isolation to unity. The external list thus becomes evidence of an inner lineage that was always present, and your present experience shifts toward unity, inclusion, and reverence for every facet of yourself and others.
Practice This Now
Practice: close your eyes, breathe, and imagine the named line of Ezra as inner states; feel the I AM embracing every name, and revise your sense of separation to unity.
