Inner Priesthood Unveiled

Neville's Inner Vision

Seen in the outer verse is a history of priesthood, but the inner reading is a revelation of your own consciousness. The tribe of Judah represents royal, ruling awareness; the Levitical altar belongs to a former state of mind, where religion was earned by outward acts. Moses spoke nothing of priesthood for that tribe because the true priesthood does not come from lineage but from the I AM that you identify as your own. Therefore the 'other tribe' spoken of is the shift of your inner allegiance from mere duty to a living recognition of your divine sonship. The altar you attend becomes the seat of awareness you maintain in attention; the sacrifice is not of bulls but of belief, the letting go of a former self that stands between you and the truth of your being. The phrase 'our Lord sprang out of Juda' invites you to awaken to the fact that authority and mercy flow from within, not from outward ritual. When you claim this internally, you enter a new covenant of consciousness, and your world begins to respond to the kingly nature of your I AM.
