Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 41:8-10 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ezekiel 41 in context

Scripture Focus

8I saw also the height of the house round about: the foundations of the side chambers were a full reed of six great cubits.

9The thickness of the wall, which was for the side chamber without, was five cubits: and that which was left was the place of the side chambers that were within.

10And between the chambers was the wideness of twenty cubits round about the house on every side.

Ezekiel 41:8-10

Biblical Context

The verse notes the height around the house, the foundations of the side chambers, and a thick outer wall. Between the chambers is a wide space all around the building.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this vision, the house is your own consciousness. The height around the house marks the boundary of your awareness, a circumference that your attention can circumscribe. The foundations of the side chambers, a full reed of six cubits, represent a steady, unmoved core—your deepest beliefs that support every thought and feeling. The five cubits of wall thickness signify the protective boundary you consciously maintain around a particular focus, keeping out noise while preserving sanctity inside. The twenty cubits of space surrounding the house show the wide field of consciousness that encircles your life, a generous margin through which impressions pass and are assessed. Between the chambers, the given divisions of space allow orderly movement—clarity, purity, and true worship as inner alignment. The Presence of God, the I AM, is the awareness that fills this enclosure; when you acknowledge that you are the house, the measurements simply confirm your state. Imaginatively, you can revise any sense of lack by declaring: I AM the foundations; my surrounding space is filled with divine presence.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, breathe I AM into your chest, and assume you are already the temple. Feel the boundaries and the surrounding spaciousness as real, right now.
