Inner Cleansing of the Mind
2 Chronicles 34:5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Chronicles 34 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse records a king burning the bones of the priests on their own altars, and thereby cleansing Judah and Jerusalem. It presents cleansing as a decisive, purifying act over a land defiled by old worship and corruption.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the stillness of your I AM, the bones signify fixed beliefs and identifications that have stood as 'priests' over your life. The altars are the habitual places in your mind where you worship fear, doubt, and old stories. When you imagine burning those bones upon the altar of awareness, you are not destroying a person, but dissolving a pattern of consciousness that has kept Judah and Jerusalem—your heart and your mind—in a loop of compromise. Cleansing Judah (the heart) and Jerusalem (the mind) becomes an inward purification: the old priesthood of limitation is removed, you reset your inner altars, and you align with a higher, truer worship—the I AM aware of its own power. This is a practical application of Neville’s teaching: awaken to the feeling of the act, assume that the purification is already complete, and dwell in the state where wholeness reigns. The external event mirrors your internal state shifting toward integrity and holiness.
Practice This Now
Assume the old beliefs holding you bound are burned away now; feel the relief as your inner temple is cleansed, and rest in the sensation of purified consciousness.
