Neville Goddard on Deuteronomy 31:10-11 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Deuteronomy 31 in context

Scripture Focus

10And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every seven years, in the solemnity of the year of release, in the feast of tabernacles,

11When all Israel is come to appear before the LORD thy God in the place which he shall choose, thou shalt read this law before all Israel in their hearing.

Deuteronomy 31:10-11

Biblical Context

Moses commands the people to gather every seven years during the Feast of Tabernacles to hear the Law read aloud before the LORD. The public reading binds the community to the covenant in a clear, ceremonial hearing.

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine that the seven-year cadence and the year of release are not external schedules but inner states pressing for renewal. When you decide to end a stubborn pattern, you re-enter the 'reading of the Law' as a new decree you will hear with fresh ears. The place God chooses is the center of your own awareness—the I AM you carry as your true throne. When this Law is read aloud before all Israel, the audience is your entire psyche—desires, fears, habits—standing in hearing, ready to bow to a higher order. The act is a practice of obedience and faithfulness: you align imagination with truth, you declare that you belong to the Covenant, and you let the presence of God reorganize your sense of what is possible. The presence is not distant; it is the moment you refuse to concede limitation and choose to live by the inner decree. The result is a felt shift: your inner world and your outer life begin to harmonize to the same law.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Close your eyes, assume you stand before your inner council, and declare the Law in your own words; then feel the presence of God filling you and everything you touch.
