Neville Goddard on Job 40:15-19 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Job 40 in context

Scripture Focus

15Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox.

16Lo now, his strength is in his loins, and his force is in the navel of his belly.

17He moveth his tail like a cedar: the sinews of his stones are wrapped together.

18His bones are as strong pieces of brass; his bones are like bars of iron.

19He is the chief of the ways of God: he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him.

Job 40:15-19

Biblical Context

Behemoth is a creature made by God whose strength lies in its core and ordered form. The verse points to divine craftsmanship and providence reflected in your inner state.

Neville's Inner Vision

Behemoth is not a distant creature but your own state made manifest by the I AM within you. 'Which I made with thee' is a declaration: you and God share the craft; your inner loins and navel are the source of vitality, your sinews bound in unity, your bones like brass and iron—unbending, enduring. This image affirms that strength comes from alignment with divine order, not external force. When you hold this vision, the chief of the ways of God becomes your inner governor, directing events with tender certainty, for you have accepted the role of creator. The line 'he that made him can make his sword to approach unto him' becomes your practical truth: the Creator within can draw near any circumstance you fear, by you simply acknowledging I AM as your sole reality. In this consciousness Providence moves with you, guiding outcomes and shaping surroundings to reflect the order you now affirm.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume, 'I am the I AM, the Behemoth of my world, strong at the core, formed by God inside me.' Feel vitality rise from the navel, and revise any sense of weakness to align with divine craft.
