Bought Back to Wholeness

Hosea 3:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Hosea 3 in context

Scripture Focus

2So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver, and for an homer of barley, and an half homer of barley:
Hosea 3:2

Biblical Context

Hosea buys back his wife with silver and barley, a costly act to restore their relationship. The verse highlights deliberate commitment as the path to reconciliation.

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider the act as an inner drama, not a history lesson. 'Fifteen pieces of silver' and 'an homer of barley' become currencies of your inner life—time, attention, faith, and daily nourishment. When you say 'I bought her to me,' you are affirming that your inner beloved—your wholeness, your covenant state—belongs to you now. This is not about remodeling another person but reclaiming a fragment of consciousness by faithful alignment with your inner law. The price you pay is the cost of awakened awareness; the silver is the sufficiency of the I AM, the barley the bread of daily practice. By paying, you restore the covenant with your deepest self and step into a state of unity. Your outer life then reflects that inward restoration; relationships, health, and purpose align with the renewed sense of belonging. Remember: God is I AM, and imagination creates reality. Redemption is a present mastery of consciousness, not a distant event.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: In a quiet moment, imagine placing the fifteen pieces of silver and two measures of barley on an inner altar, dedicating your attention and daily nourishment to your inner state. Then declare, 'I have bought her to me,' and dwell in the felt sense of restored unity.
