The Inner Court of Awareness
Exodus 27:18 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Exodus 27:18 describes a defined courtyard with specific length, width, and height, symbolizing a sacred boundary and order.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Exodus 27:18, view the outer court as a symbol of your inner state. The hundred-cubit length marks a broad, coherent field of awareness; the fifty-cubit breadth denotes a steady, universal reach in every direction; the five-cubit height signifies your ascent toward the I AM, the elevated sense that rules your life. The fine linen is the purity of thought that covers your acts; the sockets of brass are the fixed points where imagination meets matter, where your intention anchors itself in experience. This is not a temple separate from you; it is the sanctuary you inhabit by a deliberate assumption of being. When you dwell in this imagined court, you are aligning with God within—the I AM that you are. By inhabiting this space in imagination, you declare a holy boundary around your day and a covenant loyalty to your divine nature, and your events begin to reflect that sustained state of devotion.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume you are already inside the hundred-by-fifty-by-five inner court. Feel the linen of clarity around you and acknowledge the I AM presence; hold that sense until your next action flows from this space.
