The Inner Temple Of Beauty
Song of Solomon 7:1-4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Song of Solomon 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verses describe the beloved’s beauty in vivid detail, framing body parts as precious symbols. They present beauty as an expression of inner dignity, purity, and grace.
Neville's Inner Vision
These lines describe beauty as a portrait of inner states, not a physical boast but the self’s architecture seen by the I AM. When you hear "How beautiful are thy feet" imagine walking in a temple of your own consciousness, each step assured by a belief you are the I AM. The joints of thy thighs as jewels depicts the disciplined movements of life energy when guided by love and wisdom. The navel as a goblet that wants not liquor declares your capacity to hold spiritual nourishment without fear of overflow. The belly as a heap of wheat circled by lilies speaks of creative abundance, a field ripe for harvest by grace. The neck as a tower of ivory shows unyielding purity of attention; the eyes as fishpools reveal clear, reflective awareness; the nose as the tower of Lebanon signals rising aspiration toward the highest good. All these are inner properties — your soul’s architecture — revealed as the outer form when you accept and dwell in your true I AM.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the feeling of being the prince's daughter living in a temple of your awareness. See each described attribute as a lived inner state and feel it as already real.
