Neville Goddard on Joshua 19:11-14 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Joshua 19 in context

Scripture Focus

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:

Joshua 19:11-14

Biblical Context

The passage maps the outward boundary of Zebulun, tracing from the sea to rivers and hills and around to the northern edge of the land. It emphasizes directional motion and fixed borders in a tangible landscape.

Neville's Inner Vision

The text is not merely about land but the field of your awareness. The border described—sea to river, eastward to sunrise, around to Hannathon—is a symbolic map of your own states of consciousness. Each landmark corresponds to a habit, belief, or feeling that defines what you currently allow into your life. When you accept a boundary, you travel along its lines, choosing what remains within your territory and what lies beyond. The northward compass speaks to fixed patterns that keep you within a known territory, while the valley of Jiphthahel hints at deeper currents shaping your moves beneath awareness. In Neville’s view, you are the I AM imagining. By revising these borders with a more expansive assumption, you redraw the map: the sea of infinite possibilities becomes your present field, and the borders cease to limit and instead direct you toward greater realization. The border is thus a living symbol of your decision to live from present consciousness rather than from past limitation.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly and revise a current limit by stating, 'The border of my mind now extends beyond what I have named possible.' Visualize the boundary moving outward toward the sea, and feel the expansion as real for two minutes.
