Inner Priesthood Alignment
1 Chronicles 27:17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Chronicles 27 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse names Hashabiah (Levites) and Zadok (Aaronites), signaling two inner lines of priestly authority within the consciousness—order and sacred service.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within you, the names Hashabiah and Zadok are not about lineage but states of mind. Hashabiah represents the orderly, administrative current of consciousness—the mind that assigns roles, structures community, and keeps effort aligned with a shared purpose. Zadok represents the consecrated, priestly current—the sense of holiness, purity of intention, and sacred service to a higher ideal. Neville would say that God is the I AM, the awareness that moves as the governor behind every thought. When you entertain these images as inner dispositions rather than external persons, you begin to feel a dividing line disappear: the inner governor unites administration with devotion. The two streams are one kingly mind working as one through awareness, not a division of rival faculties. By deliberately assuming Hashabiah and Zadok as present within your consciousness, you authorize a harmonious administration of thoughts and a sanctified motive for actions. The inner temple is organized; unity is restored through a simple act of revision and felt awareness. You are not fragmentary history; you are the living kingdom within, where perception follows the priestly order you assume.
Practice This Now
Assume the inner council now: Hashabiah and Zadok sit in your mind. Say, 'I AM the priesthood of order and devotion,' and feel the unified sense of awareness guiding every thought.
