The Inner Remnant Returns
Jeremiah 40:11-12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 40 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah 40:11-12 describes Jews scattered in many lands returning to Judah under Gedaliah, gathering wine and summer fruits. The passage frames a physical return as a symbol of inner return to one's true land.
Neville's Inner Vision
Your plain reading shows a remnant returning to Judah under Gedaliah. But in Neville’s sense, the dispersed parts of self are not lost; they are the scattered states of consciousness that awaken when you remember who you are. The news that a remnant remains and that Gedaliah is set over them is the inner assurance that an unalterable I AM governs your mind. Mizpah, the lookout, is the vantage point from which you observe your inner land and recognize that all paths lead home. The act of gathering wine and summer fruits is not physical labor but the soul’s fruiting—joy, abundance, confidence—produced when your awareness remains centered. If you feel exiled by circumstance, recall that the remnant has always stood by you, awaiting your assumption. When you declare, 'I am the ruler here,' Gedaliah takes his place, and your inner Judah returns to fullness. Imagination creates reality: you are not returning to a country; you are returning to the land of your own I AM.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the remnant has returned to your inner Judah; picture Gedaliah as the governing I AM guiding your thoughts. Feel the land yours now, tasting wine and fruit of abundance.
