Neville Goddard on Deuteronomy 15:2-3 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Deuteronomy 15 in context

Scripture Focus

2And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth ought unto his neighbour shall release it; he shall not exact it of his neighbour, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD's release.

3Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it again: but that which is thine with thy brother thine hand shall release;

Deuteronomy 15:2-3

Biblical Context

Creditors should release debts to neighbors and brothers, while with foreigners the debt may be collected again.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within your I AM, the law of release is not a ledger but a state of consciousness. The 'release' becomes the inner cancellation of the belief that you or another must carry lack or obligation. When you imagine you have already discharged every claim against your neighbor, you align with the LORD's release and the sense of scarcity dissolves. The neighbor ceases to be apart from you; they mirror your own potential for mercy. The distinction between neighbor and foreigner points to parts of your mind that seem intimate versus distant; by meeting these parts with mercy in imagination, you acknowledge that all are expressions of the same I AM. Forgiveness is not denying truth but dissolving identification with debt as control; to forgive is to release your own sense of being owed or owing in order to feel whole. Your inner economy shifts from coercion to generosity, from fear to faith, and from judgment to compassionate knowing. As you persist in this seeing, you awaken into the experiential freedom of God’s presence where each moment is the LORD releasing you anew.
