Transfigured Mountain Moment

Matthew 17:1-4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Matthew 17 in context

Scripture Focus

1And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
2And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
3And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
4Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
Matthew 17:1-4

Biblical Context

On a high mountain, Jesus is transfigured before the disciples; his face shines like the sun and his clothing becomes white as light. Moses and Elijah appear beside him, and Peter suggests building tabernacles.

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice that the transfiguration is not a spectacle happening to you; it is the inner state you entertain in awareness. Jesus represents your I AM—the unconditioned self that shines when believed in. To Peter, James, and John this is a mountaintop picture; to you it is a moment when you stop acting from lack and begin responding from the sun within. Moses and Elijah appear as old ideas and memories, the voice of yesterday's conditioning, come to talk with the present I AM and are seen and heard, then set to pass. The request to build three tabernacles is your wish to fix an outer scene as reality; Neville would tell you that you are not asked to decorate the image—you are invited to vanish into the realization that the light is your own; your body, your world, your events reflect your inner state. The key is to assume the end: you are the radiance that shines, the I AM that cannot be diminished. When you hold this in imagination, the mountain becomes the inner Kingdom you inhabit now.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the feeling of being the I AM shining now. Then envision stepping onto a mount and letting your inner radiance illuminate all around you, releasing attachment to old stories.
