Job 41:16-17

Biblical Context

Two are so near that no air can pass between them. They are joined to one another and cannot be sundered.

Neville's Inner Vision

Job 41:16-17 invites you to see a unity so tight that air cannot pass between two. In the Neville reading, this is not two bodies but two states of consciousness in one life. The I AM—your pure awareness—stands with the imagined other and refuses separation, for unity is their natural condition. When you assume that you and the I AM are one, you seal a covenant within the mind; loyalty is restored as you dwell in the felt reality of oneness rather than the appearance of distance. The love of God becomes practical: a constant awareness that all relationships reflect the one Self, a community formed by shared consciousness rather than external contract. This is the inner marriage you cultivate, a joining that cannot be sundered because it rests on an assumption that animates every sensation, thought, and action. Remember: separation is only a momentary misunderstanding of your state. Restore the bond by confirming in imagination that you and the one Life are inseparable, and let that truth radiate outward in every fold of life.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes. Imagine two beings so near that no air can pass between them, then watch them merge into one. Say softly, I and the I AM are one, and feel that unity sealing your inner state.
