Emmaus Road Inner Life

Luke 24:13-16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Luke 24 in context

Scripture Focus

13And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.
14And they talked together of all these things which had happened.
15And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
16But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.
Luke 24:13-16

Biblical Context

Two travelers press toward Emmaus and discuss all that happened; a mysterious companion draws near, yet their eyes are kept from recognizing him.

Neville's Inner Vision

On the inner plane, the road is your consciousness, and Emmaus represents a state you inhabit when you forget the reality of your I AM. The unrecognized Jesus is the within—the Presence you are always in. As you walk and reason about outer events, you are engaging in mental chatter that dims awareness of the divine. When 'he drew near and went with them,' notice that the proximity is not an external occurrence but an inward alignment: the moment you suspend disbelief and invite the truth of your own consciousness to walk with you, the meaning of the events shifts. The veiling of their eyes corresponds to beliefs that 'reality' is only what the senses tell you; but the energy of recognition awakens when you imagine yourself as the I AM, already inseparable from the risen life. Their discussion becomes an inner dialogue with the truth, and the heart's lockdown dissolves as you feel the reality of presence. The secret: you must revise your interpretation until it feels true in your bones; then the world you discuss is altered by the consciousness you inhabit.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Assume you are already accompanied by the I AM on your inner road; revise a present worry by dwelling in the felt sense of 'presence now' and let it be so.
