Becoming the Inner High Priest
Hebrews 8:3-5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Hebrews 8 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage contrasts earthly priests who offer gifts with a heavenly pattern, showing that earthly ministry is a shadow meant to point to what exists in heaven.
Neville's Inner Vision
Let us reinterpret the scene as a drama within consciousness. The high priest is not a man in a temple but the state of awareness you name I AM. The gifts and sacrifices are the acceptable thoughts and feelings you invest in your world. When the words say the earthly priest serves the example and shadow of heavenly things, they point to the truth that every outward ritual mirrors an inner dynamic. Moses’ pattern for the tabernacle is a blueprint written on your imagination; to build it you must align with the inner vision of the end already accomplished. The pattern shown to thee in the mount becomes a rule for your inner construction: create the inner temple, furnish it with gratitude, faith, and the certainty that the state desired is already true. The earthly contact with gods cannot change the end; only your inner minister can convert your experiences by choosing, in imagination, the reality you intend to live. So you are urged to keep the inner high priest busy with offerings of the good you would manifest, and to dwell in that finished reality until it radiates outward.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the I AM within as the inner high priest. Offer your goal as a done deal feel the state of it realized now, and rest there until your outer scene aligns.
