Ezra 3:10

Biblical Context

The verse describes builders laying the foundation of the LORD's temple. Priests in ceremonial garments sound trumpets while the Levites with cymbals praise the LORD, following David's order.

Neville's Inner Vision

Ezra 3:10 speaks of more than construction; it speaks of a state of consciousness under construction. The foundation laid for the temple of the LORD is your inner groundwork—awareness becoming solid, ordered, and alive. The priests in their apparel are the disciplined thoughts and feelings arrayed in reverent purpose; the trumpets and cymbals are the vocalized moods and rhythmic returns of praise that affirm the I AM as the vibrating center. The Levites, sons of Asaph, represent the harmonies of memory and gratitude that accompany your daily assumption. Their praise, kept in step with the ordinance of David, is the pattern that governs your inner kingdom: a kingship wherein you acknowledge your own authority and bless the ascent of your desire. As you hold this vision, you align with a divine order already established within, and the outward act of building becomes the visible result of an inner conviction.
