Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 8:6-8 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ezekiel 8 in context

Scripture Focus

6He said furthermore unto me, Son of man, seest thou what they do? even the great abominations that the house of Israel committeth here, that I should go far off from my sanctuary? but turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations.

7And he brought me to the door of the court; and when I looked, behold a hole in the wall.

8Then said he unto me, Son of man, dig now in the wall: and when I had digged in the wall, behold a door.

Ezekiel 8:6-8

Biblical Context

God shows Ezekiel the great abominations within the sanctuary. A hole in the wall is revealed, and he is told to dig to find a door.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your reading of Ezekiel 8:6-8 becomes a map of the inner landscape. The 'they' are not distant nations but the lingering identities and beliefs within a mind that worships form while denying the essence. The wall represents the boundary of a fixed self-concept; the hole is a crack where new awareness can enter. When God commands, 'dig now in the wall', He invites you to inquire into your own mental walls and revise what you have taken as truth. The great abominations are the thoughts and images that separate you from the I AM present within. By turning inward, you reveal a door to the inner temple, where God dwells as awareness. The presence of God is not a distant sanctuary but the I AM you are aware of in this moment. Begin by witnessing your thoughts without judgment, then revise one belief to harmonize with the unity you seek. When you practice this, the outer world begins to reflect the sanctified state you entertain within.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare, I am the sanctuary within. Imagine digging through your inner wall and stepping through a door into the I AM presence, choosing a single healing belief to stand in for the old pattern.
