Neville Goddard on Isaiah 6:10 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 6 in context

Scripture Focus

10Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.

Isaiah 6:10

Biblical Context

Isaiah 6:10 portrays a spiritual hardening where the heart is heavy, ears are blocked, and eyes are shut, blocking perception and healing.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the inner eye, Isaiah 6:10 reveals the mind's resistance to truth as a state of heaviness and closed channels. The 'heart fat' indicates clinging to sense-pleasures, pride, or fear that dulls the ears and shuts the eyes to the divine presence within. Neville teaches that God is the I AM in you, and imagination creates the reality you accept. Therefore the verse is not a condemnation; it is a map of your present state and an invitation to revision. To heal is to convert in consciousness: you stop identifying with the outer appearance and decide for the truth of your oneness with the all, imagine from that state, feel it real, and let perception align with it. When you align with the I AM, the inner sight awakens, the ears listen to the still small voice, and what you understood inwardly becomes your outer experience. The 'healing' occurs as you shift from resistance to receptive faith in your essential wholeness.

Practice This Now

Assume the healed state: I am healed, my heart is open, I see with inner sight and understand with my heart. Feel that truth now and let it revise your sense of self in the present moment.
