The Betrayal Within the Supper

Mark 14:17-21 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Mark 14 in context

Scripture Focus

17And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.
18And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you which eateth with me shall betray me.
19And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I? and another said, Is it I?
20And he answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dippeth with me in the dish.
21The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born.
Mark 14:17-21

Biblical Context

At the supper, Jesus declares that one among the twelve will betray him; the disciples respond with sorrow and ask, 'Is it I?'.

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville, this scene is not about a future act by another, but about a state of consciousness that can be chosen or revised. The 'one of the twelve' who 'dippeth with me' is a symbol of any belief in separation that sits at the table of your mind. The warning 'woe to that man' is not doom aimed at a person, but an invitation to awaken from the dream of betrayal. The Son of Man going as it is written points to the natural unfolding of life, while the inner question 'Is it I?' exposes the reflex of fear that imagines itself outside the divine I AM. When you sit at the inner meal, you are asked to notice that you and the other are not separate, but states of consciousness sharing a dish. The only real betrayal is the belief that you can be separate from your own divine awareness. In the light of this, the scene becomes a map: you can revise the thought that you are apart from God by returning to the I AM and choosing wholeness in every moment.

Practice This Now

Assume you are the I AM, and the 'betrayal' is a thought-pass in your own consciousness. Revise by affirming, 'I am true to the I AM within me,' and feel that truth as a warm, expanding sensation in the chest as you dwell in the inner meal.
