Inner Conquest of Hebron

Joshua 10:36-37 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Joshua 10 in context

Scripture Focus

36And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, unto Hebron; and they fought against it:
37And they took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof, and all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon; but destroyed it utterly, and all the souls that were therein.
Joshua 10:36-37

Biblical Context

Joshua and Israel defeat Hebron completely, killing the king, the cities, and all souls, leaving none remaining as they had with Eglon.

Neville's Inner Vision

To Joshua, Hebron is not a city at a border but a stubborn pattern of thought you have vowed to conquer. The command to go up and fight signals that the mind must rise above a settled belief; the 'edge of the sword' is the sharpened word of truth cutting through the dream of limitation. When they 'left none remaining,' the inner teacher would say: you have denied every portion of that old self; you have granted the I AM authority to revoke it, enacting true justice by uprooting the causes that kept the pattern alive. The destruction is not vengeance but cleansing; obedience and faithfulness mean aligning your inner voice with the immutable law of consciousness. Holiness and separation occur as you detach from the memory of Eglon and Hebron, seeing them as scripts in a drama that no longer governs you. The verse invites you to understand outward acts as signs of inward movement: a victory of righteousness when state-consciousness bows to the I AM within.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, name the persistent pattern as Hebron within your mind, and assume the I AM has already destroyed it utterly. Feel the release as you revise it with, 'I am free now; this state no longer governs me.'
