Bearing the Ephah Within
Zechariah 5:10 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Zechariah 5 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
In Zechariah 5:10, the prophet asks the angel what is being carried in the ephah; the scene introduces the inner symbol of measure and movement of belief toward a new state.
Neville's Inner Vision
Zechariah’s question to the angel is your question to your own I AM. The ephah—the inner measure you apply to thoughts—speaks of what you call truth and what you call error, weighed in the mind. The carriers are not external travelers; they are inner dispositions in motion, carried by attention and belief. When you ask Whither do these bear the ephah? you are deciding where your inner traffic is going: toward dissolution of limitation or toward renewal. The angel replies by showing that the contents are moved to Shinar to build a house—an inner temple where such energies are set in order. In Neville’s psychology, this is not a historical transport but a drama of consciousness: you are free to relocate judgment, to set the wickedness in a new container, and let the I AM establish a new base for perception. The vision invites you to discontinue letting mismeasure rule your life and to awaken to the reality that you, and you alone, imagine and thus create your world.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes; picture the ephah in your mind and ask, Whither do these bear the ephah? Then revise: I am the I AM; I assign all limiting measures to the inner Shinar and fill that space with clear awareness and creative imagination.
