Inner Babylon Dismantling

Isaiah 13:14-18 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Isaiah 13 in context

Scripture Focus

14And it shall be as the chased roe, and as a sheep that no man taketh up: they shall every man turn to his own people, and flee every one into his own land.
15Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is joined unto them shall fall by the sword.
16Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.
17Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.
18Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children.
Isaiah 13:14-18

Biblical Context

These lines describe a swift, devastating upheaval that drives people to flee to their own lands and leaves the city emptied and vulnerable. It portrays judgment that results in scattering, danger, and the need to return to the inner source of power.

Neville's Inner Vision

Behold the interior vision: the chased roe and the sheep that cannot be taken up symbolize your old identification with fear and separation. When you identify with fear, you scatter your sense of safety and seek refuge in external possessions, as if silver and gold could shield you. But the revelation is inward: the I AM—your steadfast awareness—stirs within and calls you back to your true land, the inner kingdom that hosts all power. The Medes, neither matter nor sword, represent a sharpened perception that pierces illusion and disarms the story of control. They do not regard wealth; by their light, illusions crumble, and the very arrows aimed at you become harmless when seen as images in consciousness. The brutal scenes fall away as you realize you are not at the mercy of a changing world but the author of every image. Exile is the moment when you wake to this fact; return is the choice to dwell in the indwelling I AM, where judgment becomes discernment and suffering yields to the promise of return.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare, I AM the ruler of this inner landscape. Revise fear by feeling that only I AM is real, and dwell in the sense of your inner kingdom awakening.
