Biblical Context

Neville's Inner Vision

All that you call 'Israel' on the outside is but the name of your inner states. The mountains of Israel symbolize fixed attitudes, 'bands' of thought, and the people with thee are the habits of mind you’ve allied with. The ravenous birds and beasts are the restless thoughts and fears that seize a consciousness when it forgets its I AM. When the decree comes—'I have spoken it'—it is not a doom out there, but a projection of your own inner movement: you fall into the open field of awareness, where you confront the power of imagination to consume any belief that is not alive in you. Yet the same voice that names the judgment also names the remedy: by turning to the I AM within and affirming a new state of being, you invite a restoration that is already completed in consciousness. The moment you believe that your inner self endures beyond the old order, the birds, the beasts, and the fields recede, and you awaken to a state of fearless, open awareness.
