Neville Goddard on Joshua 19:10-16 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Joshua 19 in context

Scripture Focus

10And the third lot came up for the children of Zebulun according to their families: and the border of their inheritance was unto Sarid:

11And their border went up toward the sea, and Maralah, and reached to Dabbasheth, and reached to the river that is before Jokneam;

12And turned from Sarid eastward toward the sunrising unto the border of Chislothtabor, and then goeth out to Daberath, and goeth up to Japhia,

13And from thence passeth on along on the east to Gittahhepher, to Ittahkazin, and goeth out to Remmonmethoar to Neah;

14And the border compasseth it on the north side to Hannathon: and the outgoings thereof are in the valley of Jiphthahel:

15And Kattath, and Nahallal, and Shimron, and Idalah, and Bethlehem: twelve cities with their villages.

16This is the inheritance of the children of Zebulun according to their families, these cities with their villages.

Joshua 19:10-16

Biblical Context

The passage describes Zebulun’s inheritance, detailing its borders from Sarid to various towns and concluding with twelve cities and their villages, outlining the extent of their allotted land.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville’s lens, Zebulun’s borders symbolize the boundaries of your inner state. Zebulun stands for a covenant loyalty within the I AM, a portion of consciousness that invites providence and guided action when kept in unity. The border reaching toward the sea evokes the boundless sea of imagination and the currents of feeling that carry you toward the sunrise of new possibilities. The eastward turn toward Chislothtabor and the path through Daberath, Japhia, Gittahhepher, Ittakhzin, Remmonmethoar, and Neah represents the movements of thought that align with your true self and path. The northern boundary by the valley of Jiphthahel denotes a clarified, centered mind. The twelve cities with their villages symbolize twelve faculties of life—each a facet of your being, organized and harmonized under the one awareness. Providence flows not from without but from the ordered settlement of the I AM within you, guiding your unity with all life.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and affirm: I am the boundary of my life; revise any sense of lack into abundance, and feel the twelve aspects of my being organized and unified under the I AM.
