Inner Economics of Babylon

Revelation 18:13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Revelation 18 in context

Scripture Focus

13And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.
Revelation 18:13

Biblical Context

Revelation 18:13 catalogs commodities, including people as slaves and even souls, exposing a system that uses beings as merchandise. The message invites turning from external wealth to inner values.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the I AM lens, the list is not a catalog of things in a city, but a description of a mind that measures life by possession. Cinnamon and oils and horses are not merely goods; they are inner textures of sensation and desire. Slaves and souls of men point to a consciousness that treats life as disposable energy to be traded for comfort. Babylon, in this light, is a state of consciousness that has forgotten its creator and believes abundance is found only in external supply. The true wealth you seek is not in the chests of the market but in the realization that you, the I AM, are the source of all supply. By assuming a new state - 'I am the origin of all wealth; my awareness multiplies itself as needed' - you revise the scene. Feel it as real: the mind becomes a storehouse of grace and the world reflects back your inner abundance rather than its absence. When you live from this inner economy, greed dissolves and stewardship becomes natural care for creation.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and assume the state, 'I am the source of all supply.' See the inner storehouse filling with every need as your awareness expands; feel gratitude and release the urge to possess.
