Neville Goddard on Jeremiah 6:10-15 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jeremiah 6 in context

Scripture Focus

10To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold, the word of the LORD is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it.

11Therefore I am full of the fury of the LORD; I am weary with holding in: I will pour it out upon the children abroad, and upon the assembly of young men together: for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him that is full of days.

12And their houses shall be turned unto others, with their fields and wives together: for I will stretch out my hand upon the inhabitants of the land, saith the LORD.

13For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them every one is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely.

14They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.

15Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, saith the LORD.

Jeremiah 6:10-15

Biblical Context

The prophet warns that the people refuse to hear the Lord’s warning; their ears are closed and they seek false peace, leading to judgment.

Neville's Inner Vision

Jeremiah’s cry is not a history lesson but a mirror for the mind. The 'uncircumcised ear' is a consciousness that cannot hear the word because it clings to stale pictures. The word of the LORD is your own awareness speaking through you; when you resist, you feel the 'fury' as the unrest of old beliefs. The threat that houses and fields will be turned over is the outer image of a mind rearranging its settled images. From least to greatest, the dream-state leans toward covetousness and false dealing until you awaken to a single governor: I AM. To soften judgment, do not chase external peace; revise the inner frame until peace feels real. Decide that you hear the inner word and act from it, and you will see the outward world align with that inner order. The alarm becomes guidance toward a purified inner life, a state you can claim here and now by feeling the reality of I AM.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Sit quietly, close your eyes, and declare, 'I am the I AM; I hear and I choose peace now.' Feel the inner Word rising as truth and let the outer life gently align.
