Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 27:3-5 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ezekiel 27 in context

Scripture Focus

3And say unto Tyrus, O thou that art situate at the entry of the sea, which art a merchant of the people for many isles, Thus saith the Lord GOD; O Tyrus, thou hast said, I am of perfect beauty.

4Thy borders are in the midst of the seas, thy builders have perfected thy beauty.

5They have made all thy ship boards of fir trees of Senir: they have taken cedars from Lebanon to make masts for thee.

Ezekiel 27:3-5

Biblical Context

Tyre is depicted as a merchant city boasting outer beauty and wealth, built by ships and cedar, which God calls out.

Neville's Inner Vision

Here the name Tyre stands for a state of consciousness that believes itself perched at the edge of the sea, a merchant of many isles, secure in its beauty, borders, and craft. God's words expose the inner claim: I am of perfect beauty. But Neville would say: this beauty and wealth are not external rulers; they are the condition of awareness you cultivate. When you hear 'I am of perfect beauty,' hear it as a statement of your I AM, the consciousness that creates. The borders in the seas and the ship boards of fir and masts of cedar are the mental props you have erected; they prove a story about supply and security. To change your life, revise the inner assumption: imagine that you are the seashore, the sea, and the ships already capacious with abundance; feel that the ships and masts are your thoughts and disciplines, proof that you inhabit a wealthier state. The Lord's message is not condemnation but invitation: awaken to the I AM that already holds Tyre and all its imagery within you. Your outer scene will follow from that inner revision.
