Neville Goddard on Hebrews 7:11-14 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Hebrews 7 in context

Scripture Focus

11If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

12For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.

13For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.

14For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.

Hebrews 7:11-14

Biblical Context

Perfection isn’t achieved by the Levitical priesthood or the old law. A higher Melchizedek-order priesthood arises, and with that ascent the law itself must change, for true priesthood comes from within, not Levi’s line.

Neville's Inner Vision

Verse 11–14 invites you to awaken to a higher order of consciousness. The Levitical priesthood and its law are not distant rituals but a state of mind you have outgrown. When you permit a priest after the order of Melchizedek to arise in you, you discontinue serving the old rules; the phrase the priesthood being changed simply means your inner ruler shifts, and with that shift the law you heed changes. Our Lord sprang from Juda signals that the true authority is not inherited through external lineage but arises from within your own consciousness—your I AM. The outer forms crumble as you align with the inner king. Your kingdom is not built by the old law but by living awareness that you are now the priest, the judge, and the source of your experience. Practice imagining yourself as the one who speaks a new law into being, not the one bound by the old. The change in priesthood is your life changing: perceive one sovereign, continuous you.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare: I am the Melchizedek Priest within who governs my life now. Revise any belief that perfection comes by old ritual; feel the inner law changing as you imagine your higher self taking the throne.
