Hidden Stones of Tahpanhes

Jeremiah 43:9-11 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Jeremiah 43 in context

Scripture Focus

9Take great stones in thine hand, and hide them in the clay in the brickkiln, which is at the entry of Pharaoh's house in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men of Judah;
10And say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will send and take Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will set his throne upon these stones that I have hid; and he shall spread his royal pavilion over them.
11And when he cometh, he shall smite the land of Egypt, and deliver such as are for death to death; and such as are for captivity to captivity; and such as are for the sword to the sword.
Jeremiah 43:9-11

Biblical Context

Jeremiah commands the people to hide great stones in the clay at the brickkiln at Tahpanhes and proclaims that Nebuchadrezzar will set his throne on them, then defeat Egypt.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this text the stone is a fixed state of consciousness you have declared true in imagination; the kiln is the crucible of experience through which such states must pass. Nebuchadrezzar, the king of Babylon, stands as the disciplined activity of your higher I AM, the inner governor who will place a throne upon those stones. When he comes, the outward troubles of Egypt are not mere events but reflections of your inner decision—the counterfeit, the feared result of your current beliefs. The prophecy speaks not to eviction of people but to the reordering of your inner world: a new sovereignty rises on the stones, and the pavilion of your true self covers the field. What seems external is the echo of your inner alignment; by quietly seeding a steadfast state within, you crown yourself with authority, regardless of appearances. The kingdom you seek begins in consciousness and is made real by your imaginative consent.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Visualize placing three stones of calm, clarity, and courage into the clay of your mind and then assume the throne is yours now; feel the reality of that crown as if it already exists.
