Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 39:14-16 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ezekiel 39 in context

Scripture Focus

14And they shall sever out men of continual employment, passing through the land to bury with the passengers those that remain upon the face of the earth, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall they search.

15And the passengers that pass through the land, when any seeth a man's bone, then shall he set up a sign by it, till the buriers have buried it in the valley of Hamongog.

16And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. Thus shall they cleanse the land.

Ezekiel 39:14-16

Biblical Context

People are sent to bury the dead to cleanse the land, with markers guiding the burial until the land is cleansed. The city Hamonah is named as part of this purification.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Ezekiel 39:14-16, the ‘land’ is your inner field of awareness and the ‘bones’ are stubborn beliefs and memories that linger. The 'continual employment' workers symbolize persistent thoughts that must be collected and processed. The act of burying those who remain represents releasing these outdated patterns from active attention, guided by signs until they are finally placed in a deeper, symbolic valley. The seven-month period signals a disciplined season of revision in consciousness, not a mere historical timeline. Hamonah, the named city, becomes a symbol of restored harmony within the mind when internal cleansing is complete. The instruction to cleanse the land is thus a spiritual process: by acknowledging what remains, then letting it pass through imaginative action, you align your awareness with your true I AM. The earth is purged not by external rite but by inner alignment and consistent imaginative revision, until the land—your life—reflects purified consciousness.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and affirm, 'I AM the consciousness that cleanses.' Visualize markers by bones of old beliefs, then revise and bury them in your inner valley, allowing the land of your mind to become clear.
