Joshua 15:14-17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Joshua 15 in context

Scripture Focus

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.
Joshua 15:14-17

Biblical Context

Caleb defeats the remnants of the Anakim and captures Debir, promising his daughter Achsah to the man who takes the city; Othniel succeeds and marries Achsah.

Neville's Inner Vision

In the inner scripture, Debir stands as a fortress of your present beliefs. The Anakim are your lingering fears and doubts. Caleb represents the solid, unwavering I AM within you, driving out the last resistance and re-establishing a fortress of clear consciousness. The promise of Achsah signals a fruitful reward—the inner harmony and abundant feeling that follow when a chosen state of consciousness is proven in action. When Kirjathsepher is taken, the reward is given to the victor, illustrating that the union of steadfast thought and heartfelt desire yields fruit in your life. Othniel, Caleb’s brother, embodies the imagination that steps into the conquered city and brings forth Achsah as inner bounty. Thus, mastery is not external battle alone but the alignment of belief and feeling until your higher state becomes your lived experience. Your present awareness is the conqueror; your reward is the integrated, fruitful self that follows.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume you have already conquered Debir in your mind. Feel Achsah as a present inner gift—an inner harmony and rewarding outcome that confirms your higher state is now.
