Read 1 Chronicles 5 in context

Scripture Focus

23And the children of the half tribe of Manasseh dwelt in the land: they increased from Bashan unto Baalhermon and Senir, and unto mount Hermon.
24And these were the heads of the house of their fathers, even Epher, and Ishi, and Eliel, and Azriel, and Jeremiah, and Hodaviah, and Jahdiel, mighty men of valour, famous men, and heads of the house of their fathers.
1 Chronicles 5:23-24

Biblical Context

The passage describes the half-tribe of Manasseh settling in the land and lists its heads, portrayed as mighty and influential leaders of the family.

Neville's Inner Vision

In your inner sight, the land is your state of consciousness, and the people and heads are the movements and faculties you cultivate within. The half-tribe of Manasseh represents a portion of your being that you choose to settle into a broader field of awareness. When you dwell in that land, these heads—Epher, Ishi, Eliel, Azriel, Jeremiah, Hodaviah, Jahdiel—become your disciplined powers: courage, discernment, leadership, memory, and influence. They are mighty men of valour, famous in the inner council, guiding your decisions and forming the pattern of your daily life. As you increase your dwellings, your inner resources multiply, expanding from Bashan to Hermon, symbolizing a widening range of consciousness. The land is not geography but your present inner condition created by God, the I AM you are. Align with the feeling that you already possess these qualities; revise any sense of lack by living as if your inner tribe is established in order, unity, and dignity. Remember: imagination creates reality, and you are the ruler of your own inner country. Your inner tribe is your true self rising to prominence.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Assume the state, 'I am the head of my inner tribe dwelling in a land of strength.' Feel that leadership as a vivid, occupying sense in your chest until it saturates your entire being.
