Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 32:25-27 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ezekiel 32 in context

Scripture Focus

25They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain with all her multitude: her graves are round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword: though their terror was caused in the land of the living, yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit: he is put in the midst of them that be slain.

26There is Meshech, Tubal, and all her multitude: her graves are round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword, though they caused their terror in the land of the living.

27And they shall not lie with the mighty that are fallen of the uncircumcised, which are gone down to hell with their weapons of war: and they have laid their swords under their heads, but their iniquities shall be upon their bones, though they were the terror of the mighty in the land of the living.

Ezekiel 32:25-27

Biblical Context

The verse depicts a scene of slain and graves circling a leader, with the uncircumcised, slain by the sword, bearing shame as they descend to the pit. It says they will not lie with the mighty but are laid low with their weapons under their heads, their iniquities binding their bones.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed as a map of your inner life, Ezekiel 32:25-27 reveals not a distant judgment but the movement of your own consciousness. The graves and beds among the slain are the fixed pictures you cling to about yourself—the uncircumcised parts of your nature you have not welcomed into the sacred covenant of truth. The sword is the momentum of fear and habit that has terrorized your waking life, the land of the living you mistake for separate from God. When you identify with these memories, you become the terror, you bear shame, you descend into the pit of discouragement. Yet this is only a dream of separation. The line about not lying with the mighty is a promise: your higher self—the mighty you are capable of becoming—does not dwell with those old, dead images. They are gone as you claim your true identity in the I AM and allow your life to be rearranged by the law of consciousness. The iniquities upon their bones are your stale beliefs written into the architecture of your being; but you can rewrite them now, by choosing to awaken to the living presence that you are.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly and assume the I AM as your only reality; revise the scene by declaring, 'All past judgments and fears are dissolved into light now.' Then feel the inner kingdom awaken within you.
