Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 36:10-12 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 36 in context

Scripture Focus

10Then read Baruch in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the LORD, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court, at the entry of the new gate of the LORD's house, in the ears of all the people.

11When Michaiah the son of Gemariah, the son of Shaphan, had heard out of the book all the words of the LORD,

12Then he went down into the king's house, into the scribe's chamber: and, lo, all the princes sat there, even Elishama the scribe, and Delaiah the son of Shemaiah, and Elnathan the son of Achbor, and Gemariah the son of Shaphan, and Zedekiah the son of Hananiah, and all the princes.

Jeremiah 36:10-12

Biblical Context

Baruch reads Jeremiah’s words to the assembly in the temple. Michaiah, hearing them, goes down to the king’s scribe chamber where the princes sit.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the temple of your own consciousness, Baruch becomes your inner scribe who speaks the truth of Jeremiah to the gathered rulers of your mind. The house of the LORD is the standing awareness that witnesses thought and feeling; the chamber of Gemariah is the memory that holds records of your previous beliefs; the higher court and the new gate are the doors of perception through which a new decree enters. When Michaiah, hearing the words of the LORD, moves from hearing into action, he represents the moment in you when a conviction of truth crosses from the ear of the mind into the policy of your life. The princes who sit there—Elishama, Delaiah, Elnathan, and Zedekiah—are the stubborn thoughts that must yield to the Word you now accept. The scene teaches that the inner command changes the outer scene; the moment you truly hear the I AM within, the outer rulers become receptive, and life begins to conform to the order established in consciousness.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine Baruch reading the inner Word to the princes now; feel it real in your chest as I AM awareness, and carry that decree into your day as already accomplished.
