Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 34:20-21 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 34 in context

Scripture Focus

20I will even give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life: and their dead bodies shall be for meat unto the fowls of the heaven, and to the beasts of the earth.

21And Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their life, and into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, which are gone up from you.

Jeremiah 34:20-21

Biblical Context

God declares He will hand the people and their princes over to their enemies; their dead bodies will feed the fowls of heaven and the beasts of the earth. Zedekiah and Judah's princes are also delivered to these foes.

Neville's Inner Vision

Begin with the inner mapping: the enemies, those who seek their life, are the voices and conditions of your present consciousness that oppose the state you desire. When you read that the people are given into the hand of their enemies, hear it as a symbol: the old, habitual thoughts that have held you in captivity are allowed to surface so you may see them clearly. The 'dead bodies' becoming meat for birds and beasts is not punishment but a visualization of what happens when a story is no longer believed: the past thoughts die and become mere sustenance for new, living energy. The line about Zedekiah and the princes is a reminder that leadership within you—the I AM in you—that once governed may be displaced by fear; yet the authority returns when you reclaim your inner monarch by conscious assumption. The scene invites you to stop blaming outer circumstances and to awaken to inner sovereignty: you are not at the mercy of outside powers but are the self who commands what unfolds. Your present conditions reveal the state of your mind; change the state, and the world reorders itself.

Practice This Now

Sit in quiet, close your eyes, and assume the end you desire by feeling that I AM sovereign now. Repeat I AM the authority here and dwell in the inner sense of deliverance as the old fears dissolve.
