Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 22:3-9 - 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.

4For if ye do this thing indeed, then shall there enter in by the gates of this house kings sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, he, and his servants, and his people.

5But if ye will not hear these words, I swear by myself, saith the LORD, that this house shall become a desolation.

6For thus saith the LORD unto the king's house of Judah; Thou art Gilead unto me, and the head of Lebanon: yet surely I will make thee a wilderness, and cities which are not inhabited.

7And I will prepare destroyers against thee, every one with his weapons: and they shall cut down thy choice cedars, and cast them into the fire.

8And many nations shall pass by this city, and they shall say every man to his neighbour, Wherefore hath the LORD done thus unto this great city?

9Then they shall answer, Because they have forsaken the covenant of the LORD their God, and worshipped other gods, and served them.

Jeremiah 22:3-9

Biblical Context

God commands justice and protection of the vulnerable; faithful conduct brings prosperity, while turning away from covenant leads to desolation.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your life is an inner city; the LORD speaks through the consciousness I AM. The command to execute judgment and righteousness asks you to align every vibrational habit with truth. The spoiled and the oppressed are not beings apart but memories and habits within you; deliver them from the oppressor by refusing to dwell in fear, blame, or violence in your inner image. When you truly live this way, doors open: the gates of your inner temple admit kings to sit on the throne of David, with your own thoughts and feelings serving you in harmony. This is not about history but about your present state of awareness: keep covenant with the I AM and you shall prosper; neglect it and the inner house becomes a wilderness, its cedars burned by fear, its cities scattered in mind. People will pass by and wonder why such a great city suffered; answer simply, you forgot the covenant and worshipped other gods of lack, fear, or separation. Return to the covenant within and your inner city will be restored.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and assume you are ruler of this inner city. See the gates open, the king seated upon the throne of David, and feel the covenant alive in your chest; revise any fear or lack until it feels real.
