Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 5:14-15 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ezekiel 5 in context

Scripture Focus

14Moreover I will make thee waste, and a reproach among the nations that are round about thee, in the sight of all that pass by.

15So it shall be a reproach and a taunt, an instruction and an astonishment unto the nations that are round about thee, when I shall execute judgments in thee in anger and in fury and in furious rebukes. I the LORD have spoken it.

Ezekiel 5:14-15

Biblical Context

Ezekiel 5:14-15 speaks of being made waste and a reproach among surrounding nations, becoming a taunt and instruction as judgments are carried out in anger.

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of Ezekiel 5:14-15 as a map of your inner geography. The 'I' of God is the I AM within you; the outer nations are your surrounding thoughts and habits that pass by. When you take 'waste' and 'reproach' as real, you identify with lack and invite purification. The 'reproach' and 'taunt' are the whispers of resistance, reminders of what you think you lack. Yet the decree 'I the LORD have spoken it' anchors your inner authority: your purification comes through fiery judgments of anger as you release false identifications. In Neville's sense, you are not at the mercy of outer events; you are the imaginer, the one who creates the scene. By deciding the end in advance—feeling yourself whole and loyal to the I AM—you rewrite the judgment into a victory of consciousness.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine the surrounding nations as moving thoughts; declare, 'I am not these conditions; the I AM dissolves them.' Then rest in the felt sense of wholeness as your next state.
