Inner Tax Exemption For Priests

Ezra 7:24 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Ezra 7 in context

Scripture Focus

24Also we certify you, that touching any of the priests and Levites, singers, porters, Nethinims, or ministers of this house of God, it shall not be lawful to impose toll, tribute, or custom, upon them.
Ezra 7:24

Biblical Context

Ezra 7:24 states that priests, Levites, and temple ministers are exempt from tolls, taxes, and customs. The passage affirms that holy service should remain unhindered by worldly demands.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville’s voice, the verse is not about taxes in the outer world, but about the inner decree of your own consciousness. When you acknowledge that God’s law within you sets the terms, you discover you are exempt from the tolls of fear, doubt, and limitation. The priests and ministers symbolize states of awareness that attend the temple of your mind. To imprint this is to declare that no external decree can tax your inner function; your concord with the I AM is sacred and self-sufficient. The 'house of God' is your inner harmonized state, and 'custom' or 'tribute' vanish as you assume the truth: I am the one who governs my inner economy, and the world’s demands bow to the law within me. Practice is to envision these conditions as already here, revise any sense of lack, and feel the liberty as a present experience, not a distant wish. When you stand in this certainty, you render invisible the toll gates that once blocked your prosperity and peace.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, imagine yourself as the priest of your own inner temple, and declare, 'No toll or tax can touch my soul; I am exempt by the law of God within me.' Feel that freedom now, letting the sensation of being untouched by external demands fill your being.
