Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 51:13 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 51 in context

Scripture Focus

13O thou that dwellest upon many waters, abundant in treasures, thine end is come, and the measure of thy covetousness.

Jeremiah 51:13

Biblical Context

Verse depicts a city rich in treasures whose end comes when the mind’s attachment to riches reaches its limit. It suggests that outer reality shifts only when inner consciousness changes away from covetousness.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your verse speaks of one who dwells on many waters, abundant in treasures—an image of a mind fed by endless desires for external riches. In Neville’s terms, such a state is a particular arrangement of consciousness, a habit of mind that treats wealth as the sole source of safety and worth. The end of that state comes when you awaken to a more accurate assumption: that you are I AM, the awareness that creates your world. The covetousness you call 'measure' binds you to absence and fear, because you assume money as power rather than power of your own consciousness. When you revise your self to assume wealth as a present quality of being—here and now—the outer scene must shift to reflect your inner posture. The temple of abundance is not a treasury room but the feeling of sufficiency inside, the conviction that you lack nothing that belongs to your true nature. So the end of covetousness is not punishment but the natural fading of a mistaken state.
