Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 15:1-6 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 15 in context

Scripture Focus

1Then said the LORD unto me, Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind could not be toward this people: cast them out of my sight, and let them go forth.

2And it shall come to pass, if they say unto thee, Whither shall we go forth? then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith the LORD; Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity.

3And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the LORD: the sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy.

4And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah king of Judah, for that which he did in Jerusalem.

5For who shall have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem? or who shall bemoan thee? or who shall go aside to ask how thou doest?

6Thou hast forsaken me, saith the LORD, thou art gone backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand against thee, and destroy thee; I am weary with repenting.

Jeremiah 15:1-6

Biblical Context

The Lord tells Jeremiah that because the people have forsaken Him, He will cast them away and expose them to death, sword, famine, and captivity, scattering them among the nations. Jerusalem’s turning away leads to destruction and a weary God who cannot align with that state.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's terms, this passage reveals a state of consciousness at odds with its divine I AM. Moses and Samuel are not historical figures here but symbols of old scripts you use to plead for mercy. God’s mind not being toward this people signifies the inner decision of your I AM to withdraw from a stagnant, unrepentant state. The four kinds of judgment—sword, famine, captivity, and the like—are inner movements of fear, lack, and distraction that arise when a life resists alignment with life. The scattering into all kingdoms epitomizes the dispersion of attention through many roles until you awaken to a new inner state. The remedy is not a feat of external reform but a turning of consciousness toward I AM, restoring mercy, order, and unity within. When you feel abandoned, remember you are observing the result of a separative mindset; reclaim your oneness by choosing the I AM as your sole reality, and watch life rearrange itself accordingly.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Assume the I AM is your only reality here and now; revise the sense of abandonment by silently declaring, 'I am restored to mercy and wholeness,' and feel that truth as real for a full minute.
