Inner Gates, Outer Release
Nahum 2:6-7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Nahum 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The gates of the rivers are opened, and the palace dissolves. Huzzab is led away captive, with her maids following.
Neville's Inner Vision
Think of Nahum's scene as a map of your inner life. The gates of the rivers that are opened are the openings of your flowing awareness; when you adopt a new assumption, the outer palace—the rigid structure of your current conditions—begins to dissolve. Huzzab embodies the image you have of your central self clinging to status and security. By standing in the I AM, you invite those attachments to be carried away by the quiet, dove-like voice of your inner guidance. The maids represent habitual thoughts and emotions that naturally follow into alignment with your new state when you reside in the truth of your wish fulfilled. The dissolution of the palace is not punishment but the shedding of limiting forms as your inner life expands. Persist in the felt sense of the desired reality and allow the outer world to reorganize to reflect it. Your consciousness is not trapped by circumstance; it is the mover. The scene asks you to choose the inner state and watch rivers of conviction carry away fear and doubt.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Assume you are already living the fulfilled state. Picture the rivers’ gates opening, the palace dissolving, and feel your old self being led away by the gentle, dove-like inner guide.
