Echoes of Inner Wisdom in Job

Job 12:2-3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Job 12 in context

Scripture Focus

2No doubt but ye are the people, and wisdom shall die with you.
3But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you: yea, who knoweth not such things as these?
Job 12:2-3

Biblical Context

The crowd claims wisdom for themselves, but Job asserts he also understands and is not inferior. True discernment isn't possession by the many; it arises from within.

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice how the line 'No doubt but ye are the people' sounds like a chorus of opinion, while Job’s voice asserts he too has understanding and is not inferior. In Neville’s language, the verse is a lesson in states of consciousness: wisdom is not a possession of the crowd, but a function of the I AM that you are. When you identify with the external crowd—the 'you' that argues, judges, and measures worth by applause—you wear a mask of limitation. If you would have true discernment, stop chasing the wind of collective cleverness and turn your attention inward. Assume the state of being someone who 'understands as well as you' because the I AM in you already knows what is needed. This is not arrogance; it is alignment with your eternal self. By revision—repeating, feeling, embodying—that you are not inferior, you invite inner wisdom to express itself through chosen actions, words, and judgments in daily life. Truth and faithfulness flourish when the inner standard replaces external approval, and humility becomes the natural posture of an aware I.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, place your hand on your chest, and declare: I AM the wisdom that understands these things. Then revise any sense of inferiority by repeating: 'I am not inferior to anyone' until you feel it as true.
