Inner Temple Purification Insight
Jeremiah 52:12-13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 52 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah 52:12-13 records Jerusalem’s devastation as Nebuzaradan burns the LORD’s house and the king’s palace. It marks a dramatic act of judgment that wipes away outer symbols of security.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the inner psychology, the burning of the house of the LORD and the royal houses is the alchemical clearing of your inner city. Jerusalem stands for your field of awareness, and Nebuzaradan is the steady discernment of the I AM, coming to remove structures you have mistaken for permanence. The temple is not a brick building but the sanctuary where attention rests; the fire is purification, burning away idols, fear, attachment, and the ego’s insistence on external power. The exile and fall of the great houses symbolize the inner removal of beliefs that God resides outside you in temples and thrones. There is a season in your consciousness when false security must be abandoned, opening the way for a true return: rebuilding a temple within your mind anchored in I AM, surrendered to the divine within. When you accept the flame as love’s cleansing, you gain liberty, clarity, and a steadfast inner worship that requires no external fortress.
Practice This Now
Imaginatively assume the role of the I AM visiting your inner Jerusalem; let Nebuzaradan be the discerning awareness clearing the temple. Quietly affirm, 'I am the temple; I burn away what hinders love,' and feel the inner space widen into peaceful, fearless worship.
