Desire at the Passover Table

Luke 22:14-16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Luke 22 in context

Scripture Focus

14And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.
15And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:
16For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
Luke 22:14-16

Biblical Context

Jesus gathers the twelve and speaks of a longing to share the Passover before suffering, signaling that fullness comes when the Kingdom is realized within. The verse invites us to see desire as the inner pull toward establishing the Kingdom in our own consciousness.

Neville's Inner Vision

Luke presents a moment when the hour arrives and the circle sits with Jesus, and in that image your own inner hour is illuminated. When I say, 'With desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer,' I am naming the gravitational pull of consciousness toward the Kingdom. The Passover is not a historical meal alone, it is the felt density of a state of awareness that the I AM now births. The 'suffering' Jesus speaks of marks the dissolution of the sense of separation as I recognize that every pain is a signal that I am waking to an inner covenant. The kingdom of God is not a distant place but an inner condition that exists whenever I align attention with the truth that I am the I AM. The company at the table—twelve apostles—becomes the reflection of my own inner dispositions, the thoughts I entertain. By desiring and accepting the feast as already present, I revise my inner scenario until it mirrors the kingdom I already am.

Practice This Now

Practice: Close your eyes, assume the feeling that you are at the Passover with the inner circle, and declare quietly, 'I am in the Kingdom now.' Sit with that feeling until it saturates your awareness.
