Silent Understanding Awakened

Luke 18:34 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Luke 18 in context

Scripture Focus

34And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.
Luke 18:34

Biblical Context

Jesus’ warning about what will happen is not understood by the disciples. The meaning is hidden from them, because their inner state isn't ready to receive it.

Neville's Inner Vision

That which is spoken by the inner teacher remains unseen by those who cling to surface meanings. Luke shows a moment where Jesus’ words are true and future events are foretold, yet the hearers cannot grasp them because their consciousness is fixed in familiar stories and fears. In Neville's fashion, the 'I AM' within you is the audience that sees or misses; when you identify with a state of separation, truths are hid from your awareness. The verse is not about their ignorance as history but about the law of consciousness: a truth is as hidden as your state of receptivity. The disciples’ blindness is the result of a mental posture that expects spectacle rather than inward transformation. When you revise your assumption—believing you understand what is spoken, feeling it as real, and letting the inner perception emerge—the words cease to be hidden. The prophecy then unfolds in your experience not by changing external events, but by awakening the inner sight that already knows.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, breathe, and revise the moment: silently declare, 'I now understand the meaning of these words.' Then imagine the inner eye opening to see the truth behind the saying.
