Neville Goddard on Isaiah 52:1 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Isaiah 52 in context

Scripture Focus

1Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean.

Isaiah 52:1

Biblical Context

The verse invites Zion/Jerusalem to awaken and adorn themselves with strength and holy garments. It signals an inner conversion—separation from that which is uncircumcised or unclean.

Neville's Inner Vision

Awakening here is not a calendar event but an interior shift of consciousness. Zion represents your state of awareness—the I AM you are aware through. When you put on strength and the beautiful garments, you are choosing to embody a pristine self-image, one that cannot be touched by petty fears or impure beliefs. The 'uncircumcised and unclean' are not others but limiting beliefs and vibrations you once tolerated. As you persist in this state, you notice intrusions lose their power because you are inside a holy city that excludes what does not belong. The guidance is simple: dwell in the feeling of the wish fulfilled, practice the assumption that you are that state now, and move through your day dressed in the inner garment. Let your outer life reflect the steadfast inner Zion, and watch as circumstances align with your new self-conception.
