Neville Goddard on Joshua 18:15-19 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Joshua 18 in context

Scripture Focus

15And the south quarter was from the end of Kirjathjearim, and the border went out on the west, and went out to the well of waters of Nephtoah:

16And the border came down to the end of the mountain that lieth before the valley of the son of Hinnom, and which is in the valley of the giants on the north, and descended to the valley of Hinnom, to the side of Jebusi on the south, and descended to Enrogel,

17And was drawn from the north, and went forth to Enshemesh, and went forth toward Geliloth, which is over against the going up of Adummim, and descended to the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben,

18And passed along toward the side over against Arabah northward, and went down unto Arabah:

19And the border passed along to the side of Bethhoglah northward: and the outgoings of the border were at the north bay of the salt sea at the south end of Jordan: this was the south coast.

Joshua 18:15-19

Biblical Context

The passage describes the southern boundary of the land allotted to the tribe of Benjamin, tracing a line from Kirjathjearim toward the southern coast and detailing its limits.

Neville's Inner Vision

Scripture presents more than a boundary; it reveals how your mind settles into its own territory. The southern border in Joshua is a map of your own commitments, drawn by the I AM that you are. The border’s passage from Kirjathjearim to the coast corresponds to the way a state of consciousness moves through landmarks of decision, loyalty, and care. Each landmark—the well of waters, the valley, the mountain—becomes an inner point where you choose who you are in relation to your covenant. When you dwell in the awareness that you are the one drawing those lines, the south coast becomes not a boundary of lack but of protection: a boundary that guards your sense of unity with Providence and your neighbors. Trust that the direction of the border mirrors your inner discipline: to tend your thoughts, to choose alignment with your higher self, to steward the inner landscape with love. The more you embody this, the more your outer circumstances reflect the order of your inner state, and your community grows in harmony.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and declare, I AM the boundary of my own experience. Assume the feeling of covenant and revision—see yourself already within the border you seek, and feel-it-real that your circumstance aligns with unity and guidance.
