Caleb's Hebron Springs

Joshua 15:13-19 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Joshua 15 in context

Scripture Focus

13And unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a part among the children of Judah, according to the commandment of the LORD to Joshua, even the city of Arba the father of Anak, which city is Hebron.
14And Caleb drove thence the three sons of Anak, Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.
15And he went up thence to the inhabitants of Debir: and the name of Debir before was Kirjathsepher.
16And Caleb said, He that smiteth Kirjathsepher, and taketh it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter to wife.
17And Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it: and he gave him Achsah his daughter to wife.
18And it came to pass, as she came unto him, that she moved him to ask of her father a field: and she lighted off her ass; and Caleb said unto her, What wouldest thou?
19Who answered, Give me a blessing; for thou hast given me a south land; give me also springs of water. And he gave her the upper springs, and the nether springs.
Joshua 15:13-19

Biblical Context

Caleb is allotted Hebron as his portion and conquers the surrounding land. Achsah asks for springs, and Caleb grants both the upper and nether springs.

Neville's Inner Vision

Caleb’s Hebron is your inner stronghold. When you read this, imagine that Caleb is the I AM within you, driving out the sons of Anak—the fears and stubborn beliefs that stand between you and your true habitation. The city Debir, Kirjathsepher, is a doorway you pass through, a belief you claim as yours, and the vow to give Achsah to wife signals your invitation to life and partnership: the highest self is given entrance into your heart’s inner family. Othniel, Caleb’s brother, receiving Debir, represents the fruit born when you stand in the conquered state and invite gifts of life through action. Achsah’s request for a field and for springs—“Bless me, for you have given me a south land; give me also springs of water”—is the natural demand of a living consciousness for nourishment and vitality. When Caleb grants the upper and nether springs, it is the affirmation that your inner state provides both the spiritual and the material streams that sustain you. Providence isn’t distant; it is the pattern of your own decision to inhabit and bless your world.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the state of Caleb—your I AM gifting yourself Hebron. Then revise a lack into abundance by declaring, I now claim springs of life within me, and feel the vitality flowing.
