Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 41:22-26 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ezekiel 41 in context

Scripture Focus

22The altar of wood was three cubits high, and the length thereof two cubits; and the corners thereof, and the length thereof, and the walls thereof, were of wood: and he said unto me, This is the table that is before the LORD.

23And the temple and the sanctuary had two doors.

24And the doors had two leaves apiece, two turning leaves; two leaves for the one door, and two leaves for the other door.

25And there were made on them, on the doors of the temple, cherubims and palm trees, like as were made upon the walls; and there were thick planks upon the face of the porch without.

26And there were narrow windows and palm trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sides of the porch, and upon the side chambers of the house, and thick planks.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your inner temple is not a building you visit but a state you consistently inhabit. Ezekiel's wooden altar and the table before the LORD symbolize the nourishment of Life that your awareness feeds when you dwell in I AM. The two doors and their two turning leaves represent the dual movements of attention—what you accept and what you release—through which you either admit the divine into your life or close the doors to it. The cherubim and palm motifs on the doors and walls are inner images reflecting a mind replete with protection, grace, and peace. The thick porch planks and the narrow windows remind you that your world is held by sturdy, selective perception—what you permit to be seen. Practice now by assuming you are already within this holy space. Feel the LORDs presence as your own I AM, and revise any sense of separation by quietly affirming, I am the temple of the living God. With each breath, let that inner sanctuary widen, until your ordinary moments are bathed in its light.
