Inner Altar Proportions

Ezekiel 43:13-14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Ezekiel 43 in context

Scripture Focus

13And these are the measures of the altar after the cubits: The cubit is a cubit and an hand breadth; even the bottom shall be a cubit, and the breadth a cubit, and the border thereof by the edge thereof round about shall be a span: and this shall be the higher place of the altar.
14And from the bottom upon the ground even to the lower settle shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser settle even to the greater settle shall be four cubits, and the breadth one cubit.
Ezekiel 43:13-14

Biblical Context

These verses list the altar's exact dimensions—the base, breadth, border, and the raised places—defining its form. They establish precise proportions as the language of worship.

Neville's Inner Vision

These lines reveal the architecture of consciousness. The altar’s base, breadth, border, and elevated shelves become symbols for your inner sanctuary. When you measure with the square of awareness, two cubits from ground to the lower settle anchor a stable, centered stance; four cubits from the lesser to the greater settle signal a rising order within your mind toward fuller realization. The border encircling the edge is your discipline—a boundary that keeps attention steady and prevents drift. Worship, in this light, is proportion: aligning your desires with divine arrangement, letting go of what disrupts the holy space, and letting sacrifice be the release of ego. Imagination is the builder; through consistent inner measuring you construct a sanctuary that becomes your lived reality. If you dwell there, the I AM becomes present as your surrounding reality, and what you seek outside is born from the order you maintain inside.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and assume the role of the altar in your mind. Feel the base, border, and levels as real dimensions of your own consciousness and declare, I AM the altar of peace, feeling it real until the sense of separation dissolves.
