Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 41:18-20 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ezekiel 41 in context

Scripture Focus

18And it was made with cherubims and palm trees, so that a palm tree was between a cherub and a cherub; and every cherub had two faces;

19So that the face of a man was toward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side: it was made through all the house round about.

20From the ground unto above the door were cherubims and palm trees made, and on the wall of the temple.

Ezekiel 41:18-20

Biblical Context

Verse presents a temple decorated with cherubim and palm trees, a palm tree between each cherub, and faces directed toward the palm. It signals a holy, unified pattern that encircles the space from ground to entry.

Neville's Inner Vision

Behold Ezekiel’s temple as a map of your own consciousness. The cherubim and palm trees are not distant stones but symbolic patterns within your mind where the Presence rests. The palm tree between two cherubs suggests a steady life of awareness held between opposition—two faces on a single guard, the man and the lion—reminding you that your faculties can be united under the goal of Life. The faces facing the palm indicate that understanding and strength look toward the source of life, the palm that signifies growth, vitality, and divine breath. The pattern runs from the ground to the door—an inner architecture that spans your entire field of experience. When you assume the state of this inner temple, you align with the I AM, and the Presence of God becomes the atmosphere of your day. Imagination constructs reality, so your deliberate feeling of being in that sacred enclosure will redraw your sense of limitation into loyalty to your higher covenant.

Practice This Now

For 5 minutes, assume the state 'I am the temple where Presence reigns'; feel the palm-life centered between the guarding faculties, and let that feeling of unity color your thoughts and actions.
