Neville Goddard on Ezekiel 9:2 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ezekiel 9 in context

Scripture Focus

2And, behold, six men came from the way of the higher gate, which lieth toward the north, and every man a slaughter weapon in his hand; and one man among them was clothed with linen, with a writer's inkhorn by his side: and they went in, and stood beside the brasen altar.

Ezekiel 9:2

Biblical Context

Six men, armed with slaughter weapons, come from the north gate, and one linen-clad scribe with an ink horn stands by the bronze altar. The vision shows judgment at the inner altar of your awareness, inviting a measured purification of what you allow within.

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider Ezekiel 9:2 as the drama of your own consciousness. Six watchers cross the inward threshold from the higher gate, each representing a facet of your decision, your moral attention, and your capacity to distinguish what you will permit in your life. They carry the tools of judgment not to punish, but to prune outdated states from your mind. The linen-clad scribe with the ink horn is the I AM—your present awareness—whose pen marks the exact state you consent to hold. They approach the brasen altar, your altar of feeling, where belief and action meet. In this light, judgment becomes a conscious choosing, a purification of what you entertain in awareness. When you accept that all events are projections of your inner state, you can revise—right now—by assuming the end you desire and feeling it as real. So, instead of waiting for some external spectacle, awaken to the truth that your inner gate, your I AM, and your imagined altar govern the reality you experience.

Practice This Now

Assume the state you desire now and feel it real. Revise the inner record by affirming, 'I AM the presence of wholeness now,' letting that feeling linger.
