The Question about the Resurrection: Luke 20:28–33

The Sadducees, who deny the resurrection, pose a scenario about a woman who marries seven brothers, each dying childless. They ask whose wife she will be in the resurrection. This question is not sincere—it reflects the logical mind mocking spiritual truth . The Sadducees, symbolic of the outer reasoning man, are trying to trap the deeper, imaginative self in a web of physicality and linear thinking. The woman passed between seven brothers symbolises a state —a soul—seeking fulfilment through external means. Each "marriage" represents an attempt to generate life from outer law, but none can produce the fruit of manifestation. The true union of 'marriage' is emotively described in the Song of Solomon. Neville Goddard would say that without understanding the inner law—that imagination creates reality—all these outer “husbands” (attempts) are barren. Resurrection is not about dead bodies returning to life; it is the awakening of the inner man to his true nature , where...

Whose Wife Will She Be? Neville Goddard and the Seven Brothers (Funny Ed)

In Luke 20:27–40, the Sadducees come up with a scenario so outlandish, it could’ve been the script for a medieval soap opera. They bring up a woman who was married to seven brothers —and each one dies, childless. Now, this is where they think they’ve got Jesus. The big question: “In the resurrection, whose wife will she be?” It’s like the Sadducees are saying, “We’ve got a tricky theological riddle for you, Jesus, hope you don’t flunk Bible trivia.” And instead of playing their game, Jesus hits back with the real spiritual truth: “They which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world… neither marry, nor are given in marriage… for they are equal unto the angels.” Wait, hold up. Did Jesus just tell us that the afterlife is about no more weddings? No honey-do lists, no “where’s my wedding ring?”—only spiritual freedom? Yeah. And Neville Goddard, in his usual “look beneath the surface” style, adds a bit more spice: this isn’t about earthly weddings, folks. Nope. It’s about the r...

Whose Wife Will She Be? Neville Goddard and the Seven Brothers

movee. In Luke 20:27–40, the Sadducees approach Jesus with a curious question. A woman, they say, was married to seven brothers. Each one died without leaving her a child. So they ask: “In the resurrection, whose wife will she be?” To them, it was a challenge—meant to mock the idea of life beyond death. But Jesus replies with a spiritual truth that transcends the literal: “They which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world… neither marry, nor are given in marriage… for they are equal unto the angels.” Neville Goddard, known for interpreting Scripture as symbolic instruction for inner transformation, invites us to look deeper. To him, this is not about earthly marriage, but about the relationship between the subconscious mind and the states of consciousness we attempt to occupy. The Woman as the Soul In Neville’s teaching, the woman symbolises the soul—or more precisely, the subconscious mind. This inner realm is fertile and creative. It is the medium through which imagination br...
