Inner Return From Judgment
Isaiah 14:19 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 14 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Isaiah 14:19 depicts someone cast out of the grave, like a discarded branch and slain raiment, descending to the pit and becoming a carcase trodden under feet.
Neville's Inner Vision
Isaiah 14:19 speaks to the inner drama of consciousness where you imagine yourself cast out from the 'grave' of former beliefs. The 'abominable branch' and the 'raiment of those slain' symbolize a part of your identity you have judged as useless or condemned. The sword, pit, and carcase trodden underfoot reflect the inner conviction that this aspect of you belongs to the earth, an old self you have rejected. Yet this is not punishment from without; it is the outplaying of your present beliefs about yourself. In Neville Goddard's method, you reverse the scene by assuming the opposite state: you envision wholeness, renewal, and a fresh raiment of life. By dwelling in the feeling of being cared for, restored, and re-clothed in new life, you rewrite the inner script and allow the outer scene to reflect that inward shift. The once “cast out” self becomes the terrain for a new self-conception, as old concepts are stepped away in favor of your I AM presence.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and imagine being drawn out of the pit into a bright room, clothed in a new robe of life. Then repeat, in present tense: I am restored, whole, and rightly placed, feel it in my chest as true now.
