Feast Before Judgment Within
Isaiah 22:13-14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Isaiah 22 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Isaiah 22:13-14 portrays outward feasting as a response to fear of death, yet the text warns that such pleasures cannot purge inward misalignment. In Neville's view, the remedy is to shift consciousness now and let the old self die in imagination, so repentance becomes a felt renewal.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Isaiah’s scene the feast is a symbol of a mind clinging to sensation while ignoring a deeper misalignment. The line 'let us eat and drink' becomes a confession that the I AM has forgotten itself, and the phrase 'for to morrow we shall die' whispers that the old self must perish before any cleansing can occur. Neville teaches that all events are states of consciousness; this is why the judgment here is not external punishment but the inner movement of belief. When you believe life ends with appetite, you empower a cycle of fear. The remedy is to turn the gaze inward and claim the I AM as your constant awareness—already complete, already alive beyond appetite. By imagining yourself as that I AM, you reverse the scene: the perception of time and death gives way to a present reality where sin is simply a mistaken attitude toward life. When the mind accepts that it is imagining this life, the so-called iniquity loses its grip because it no longer stands between you and your true essence.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Sit quietly, embody 'I AM' as your constant awareness. Revise the scene by affirming this moment is the feast of life, not fear, and feel it real as that awareness fills you.
