Read Deuteronomy 4 in context

Scripture Focus

46On this side Jordan, in the valley over against Bethpeor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, after they were come forth out of Egypt:

47And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of Bashan, two kings of the Amorites, which were on this side Jordan toward the sunrising;

48From Aroer, which is by the bank of the river Arnon, even unto mount Sion, which is Hermon,

49And all the plain on this side Jordan eastward, even unto the sea of the plain, under the springs of Pisgah.

Deuteronomy 4:46-49

Biblical Context

The passage marks Israel's eastern boundary after deliverance, naming the lands of Sihon and Og and the extent from Arnon to Hermon, settled as their possession.

Neville's Inner Vision

To the reader aligned with Neville Goddard, this text speaks not of geography but of the landscape of your own consciousness. 'This side Jordan' is the present state of awareness; the valley and plains are the movements of attention you give to your life. Sihon and Og represent fixed, resisting thoughts and habits—inner kings you must quiet by consenting to the end you desire. Moses stands as the higher self or the I AM guiding you from bondage to liberty, leading you to possess a land not merely of soil but of realized being. The land east of Jordan becomes your felt sense of prosperity and integrity when you refuse to let fear rule your imagination. Hermon and Pisgah point to peaks of spiritual insight and springs of inspiration that open only when you remain loyal to the covenant within—the steadfast I AM. The two kings remind you that inner opposition persists; triumph comes through consistent assumption and the feeling of the end as already yours. Providence appears as the inner order granting territory to the faithful mind.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, stand on the inner boundary of Jordan, and assume you already possess the land of your desire; hold that end with the feeling of fullness until it becomes your present state.
