Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 32:29-30 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ezekiel 32 in context

Scripture Focus

29There is Edom, her kings, and all her princes, which with their might are laid by them that were slain by the sword: they shall lie with the uncircumcised, and with them that go down to the pit.

30There be the princes of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians, which are gone down with the slain; with their terror they are ashamed of their might; and they lie uncircumcised with them that be slain by the sword, and bear their shame with them that go down to the pit.

Ezekiel 32:29-30

Biblical Context

Edom, its kings and princes, and the northern rulers with the Zidonians are described as slain and buried with the uncircumcised in the pit. The passage points to outer power and pride as inner states that have fallen when confronted by the life within.

Neville's Inner Vision

In the Neville Goddard lens, Ezekiel's verses are not a geographic verdict but a map of consciousness. Edom and the princes of the north symbolize beliefs of separation—pride, control, the longing to stand apart by force. The sword that slays them is the self-interrogation of awareness that cuts through illusion, exposing what is truly alive and what is dead in us. 'They shall lie with the uncircumcised' speaks of being cut off from the inner life, living as if outer might defined worth. The pit represents the vast subconscious where unacknowledged thoughts go to purge their power. When these inner rulers are brought low and humiliated by their own fear, it is not punishment but the clearing of the mind's stage for the I AM to arise. The 'princes of the north' and the Zidonians are the stubborn plans of ego that fear loss and seek safety in separation; their fear becomes their fall, and their shame becomes a lesson: your true king is within, not in outward conquest. Your awareness can witness the fall and awaken to a throne that cannot be moved by dream or sword.

Practice This Now

Assume you are the I AM within; imagine the inner Edom and northern princes bowing to your awareness, and feel the relief as they disappear from the throne.
