Inner Lineage of Laadan
1 Chronicles 23:7-9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Chronicles 23 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
It records the Gershonite leaders Laadan and Shimei, and lists their sons, establishing an orderly inner lineage. This hints at dignity and unity within a family line, within the larger community.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within the I AM, your consciousness is not a solitary you but a family of faculties coexisting as one sovereign self. Laadan and Shimei are not people to be remembered only; they are channels of awareness, streams that form the inner house you call I. The sons Jehiel, Zetham, Joel and Shelomith, Haziel, Haran are the chief voices—the thoughts, memories, purposes, and loves that govern your days. When the scripture calls these 'the chief of the fathers of Laadan,' it is naming the ruling ideas that direct your life into order. If you feel scattered, remember that every line in your inner lineage has dignity and a role under the I AM. You are Imago Dei inwardly, a being of unity, not fragmentation. By aligning these faculties, you invite harmony in your relationships, in your self-image, and in your world. So treat your inner genealogies as sacred employees of consciousness, and let the sense of a well-ordered house guide your present choices.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the chief position in your inner house. Say softly, 'Laadan, Shimei, Jehiel, Zetham, Joel, Shelomith, Haziel, Haran, you are one line under the I AM.' Feel that unity now in your breathing and choices.
