Hebrews 8:4 Inner Priest

Hebrews 8:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Hebrews 8 in context

Scripture Focus

4For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:
Hebrews 8:4

Biblical Context

Hebrews 8:4 asserts that if the priest were on earth, he would not be a priest, because earthly priests offer gifts according to the law.

Neville's Inner Vision

On earth signals the waking state of consciousness clinging to form and ritual. Hebrews 8:4 shows the true priesthood is not in an earthly order, but within your own I AM. In Neville's method, the outer priests and their sacrifices symbolize a limited mindset that believes relief comes through performance. The higher priest is your divine awareness, the living presence you already are. When you imagine that this inner priest stands before the altar of your heart, you revise your sense of distance from God: you are not awaiting permission but recognizing you are the permission. The letter of the law fades as you dwell in the consciousness that knows itself as God when acting through you. The moment you assume the reality of the inner priest, you join a covenant loyalty with your eternal I AM, and the gifts you seek—peace, wholeness, renewal—arrive as a natural expression of that inner state.

Practice This Now

Practice: Sit quietly and presume the inner priest is present now; repeat I AM and feel it real, allowing the sense of divine presence to fill your awareness until your state shifts.
