Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 20:6 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 20 in context

Scripture Focus

6And thou, Pashur, and all that dwell in thine house shall go into captivity: and thou shalt come to Babylon, and there thou shalt die, and shalt be buried there, thou, and all thy friends, to whom thou hast prophesied lies.

Jeremiah 20:6

Biblical Context

The passage declares that Pashur and all who dwell in his house will be carried to Babylon, where he will die and be buried, because he and his friends prophesied lies. It presents a judgment tied to falsity and the consequences that accrue to believing in deceit.

Neville's Inner Vision

Pashur is not merely a man but a stubborn state of mind that clings to a lie. The captivity foretold is the soul’s imprisonment within a false image, the Babylon of dream-thought where counterfeit prophecy rules. The death in Babylon marks the symbolic end of that exiling stance and the grave of the old narrative you have believed about yourself. Your inner circle who believed those lies share in the outcome because their thoughts fed the same fiction. Yet the verse reveals an opportunity: to awaken by reimagining from the I AM, to shift from judgment to inner revision. In Neville’s terms, you are asked to claim a new consciousness that transcends the lie, recognizing that your present awareness is the throne from which all prophecy flows. When you entertain a truer image, you align with a reality where the ‘persecutor’ has no power and return to the self you truly are becomes inevitable.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the I AM; revise the inner Pashur to the steady voice of truth, and feel the belief dissolving the old Babylon image until you know you are free.
