Inner Exile, Inner Return
Jeremiah 1:3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jerusalem's history unfolds from Jehoiakim through Zedekiah, ending in captivity in the fifth month. The passage records the sequence of rulers and the fall of the city.
Neville's Inner Vision
See that the names and years are not external history alone but inner movements of consciousness. In this view, Jehoiakim and Zedekiah symbolize stubborn states you have tolerated within; the thread of time points to a moment when you must claim a new self. The 'carrying away of Jerusalem' becomes your moment of displacement from a limiting belief or identity, a fracture that forces you to reframe what you are and what you can be. The fifth month marks the exact instant of decision when the old scene gives way to a fresh I AM awareness. The truth is not in the dates themselves but in the imagination behind them: your inner world creates your outer transcripts. Jeremiah is the I AM learning to speak from stillness, not from fear. He invites you to return to your inherent sovereignty by envisioning a healed city within. As you entertain that vision, your inner weather shifts, and the outer circumstances begin to reflect that new center of consciousness.
Practice This Now
Impose the revised scene now: close your eyes and declare, 'I am the I AM; I am free.' See the city within you rise in light, and dwell there until the outer world mirrors the change.
