Perfect Weights and Measures

Deuteronomy 25:13-16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Deuteronomy 25 in context

Scripture Focus

13Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small.
14Thou shalt not have in thine house divers measures, a great and a small.
15But thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure shalt thou have: that thy days may be lengthened in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
16For all that do such things, and all that do unrighteously, are an abomination unto the LORD thy God.
Deuteronomy 25:13-16

Biblical Context

Deuteronomy 25:13-16 condemns using unequal weights and measures and calls for a single, just standard, for such dishonesty corrupts life. In Neville’s view, this is a reflection of inner consistency: when your inner scales are true, your life aligns with truth.

Neville's Inner Vision

See the command as a clue to your inner laboratory. The Lord thy God is not a distant lawgiver but the I AM that attends your awareness. The two great weights in your bag and the two measures in your house are not commodities but states of mind—contradictory judgments you hold about yourself and the world. When you permit any area of life to be weighed by two different standards, you are imagining a divided man, and your day-to-day experience mirrors that division: fatigue, confusion, coexistence of opposite outcomes. The instruction to possess a perfect and just weight is therefore a directive to unify the self: to bring every decision, every action, every belief to the same single standard of integrity. As you do, the land—the field of your own being—lengthens its days, vitality returns, and life feels coherent again. The abomination is not a crime outside but the inner rebellion against a truthful measurement. By aligning your inner verdicts with a universal standard, you restore harmony between what you claim and what you live, and your world becomes a faithful echo of your true consciousness.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Assume you now carry only one perfect weight; revise every inner weighing to that single standard, and feel the truth of alignment settle into your body. Do it now and observe any shift in mood or circumstance.
