Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 28:2-4 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 28 in context

Scripture Focus

2Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying, I have broken the yoke of the king of Babylon.

3Within two full years will I bring again into this place all the vessels of the LORD's house, that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took away from this place, and carried them to Babylon:

4And I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, with all the captives of Judah, that went into Babylon, saith the LORD: for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.

Jeremiah 28:2-4

Biblical Context

The LORD declares the Babylonian yoke is broken. He promises the return of the temple vessels and the captives.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's voice: Consider the temple of your mind as the house of the LORD, your I AM. When the prophet proclaims that the yoke is broken, you hear an inner decree that bondage has ended. The yoke is not a distant ruler but a belief that confines awareness. The returning vessels and captives symbolize your inner faculties—memory, imagination, desire, joy—returning to their rightful throne in consciousness. The two-year period becomes the rhythm of an inner awakening rather than a calendar date; by maintaining the assumption, your inner life aligns with the outcome and restoration manifests in your outward life as you conceive it. Deliverance is not external conquest but the coming into harmony of your mind with its own truth: you are the I AM who breaks the yoke, you are the temple, and restoration follows from the act of believing that is already done.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Sit quietly and declare, 'I am free; the yoke is broken.' Then visualize the vessels of the LORD's house returning to your inner temple, and feel their restoration as present reality.
