Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 22:3 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 22 in context

Scripture Focus

3Thus saith the LORD; Execute ye judgment and righteousness, and deliver the spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor: and do no wrong, do no violence to the stranger, the fatherless, nor the widow, neither shed innocent blood in this place.

Jeremiah 22:3

Biblical Context

The LORD calls us to judge and act righteously, freeing the oppressed. It also forbids harming the stranger, the fatherless, or the widow.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the Neville lens, Jeremiah 22:3 is not a command to external politics but a summons to your inner state. Judgment and righteousness become discernment and alignment of your consciousness with the one I AM. To deliver the spoiled from the hand of the oppressor is to release the oppressed thoughts and memories that haunt you—reclaiming their power by accepting your own authority as imagination. The stranger, the fatherless, the widow stand for those neglected aspects of yourself, and you are instructed to neither shed innocent blood in this place—i.e., stop the inner violence of self-condemnation. When you dwell in the felt sense of being the just, merciful I AM, you naturally choose acts of mercy in every moment, because mercy arises from the same state that creates reality. Your inner law is compassion, and your outer world will reflect that order as you persist in assuming the state.
