The Inner Judas

John 13:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read John 13 in context

Scripture Focus

2And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him;
John 13:2

Biblical Context

The verse shows an inner influence—the 'devil'—putting a temptation into Judas's heart at supper. It presents betrayal as an inner movement within consciousness rather than an external act.

Neville's Inner Vision

John 13:2 reveals that at the close of the supper the 'devil' put into Judas's heart the thought to betray. In the Neville frame, the devil is not a person outside you but a false state of consciousness—fear, sense of lack, and attachment to appearances. The room and the meal symbolize your current field of awareness; when you identify with separation, you invite a motion that looks like betrayal but is really a misalignment with your divine I AM. Judas embodies the part of you that, for a moment, believes in conditions and yields to appetite or fear, thus manifesting as outward betrayal in your dream of life. Yet the deeper reality remains untouched: God is real, and you are the I AM in whom all things consist. The event invites you to awake from the dream of division and to assume the truth that you cannot be betrayed by anyone or anything that is only an appearance in your mind. Resolve it by revising the scene inwardly to accept your unity with the divine.

Practice This Now

Practice: In quiet, revise the scene by affirming, 'I am the I AM; no belief or impulse can betray my awareness.' Then feel the unity with God and let that feeling displace any fear-based impulse.
