Blood, Life, and Inner Law

Deuteronomy 12:23-25 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Deuteronomy 12 in context

Scripture Focus

23Only be sure that thou eat not the blood: for the blood is the life; and thou mayest not eat the life with the flesh.
24Thou shalt not eat it; thou shalt pour it upon the earth as water.
25Thou shalt not eat it; that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight of the LORD.
Deuteronomy 12:23-25

Biblical Context

The passage forbids eating blood, for the blood is the life; it instructs pouring it out and living rightly in the LORD’s sight so that you and your descendants prosper.

Neville's Inner Vision

Life-energy is the blood of being; to eat it is to cling to a moment’s craving as if it were you. In Neville’s sense, the blood is your inner vitality—the feelings and thoughts you tend to identify with. Pouring it out as water means releasing attachment to the force behind every urge, trusting that life flows most truly when not consumed by a sense of lack. When you align with the inner law, you do what is right in the sight of the LORD by keeping your consciousness orderly: you choose perception over possession, steadiness over storm. The 'land going well' is the inner weather of your mind—your thoughts, emotions, and outcomes shifting to harmony because you no longer gnaw at the source of life. The instruction is not about external ritual but about recoding your imagination: you are the I AM, and life remains intact as you let it circulate through you without attachment. In this state, abundance follows because your inner condition matches the divine order.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: Assume the state 'I am the I AM, aligned with divine order.' In the next moment of quiet, revise any craving as 'I release the life-energy back to the earth' and feel it flowing through you as water.
