Neville Goddard on Joshua 22:17 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Joshua 22 in context

Scripture Focus

17Is the iniquity of Peor too little for us, from which we are not cleansed until this day, although there was a plague in the congregation of the LORD,

Joshua 22:17

Biblical Context

The verse questions whether the Peor era iniquity remains with the people and notes they have not been cleansed to this day, even as a plague afflicted the assembly.

Neville's Inner Vision

From a Neville lens, the Peor iniquity and the plague are not history but inner weather symbols of a belief that you are stained and separate from the good. The question asks if this error remains real in your consciousness, yet cleansing comes through a shift in awareness. Recognize that you are the I AM, the present awareness, untouched by guilt's story. When you acknowledge this, you can revise the scene by affirming that the iniquity has already been resolved by the power of awareness and by imagining the plague dissolving as the light of your true self shines through. Persist in this revision, and the memory loses force as your true state of wholeness substitutes the old belief. The verse invites you to abandon the notion of a lasting stain and to dwell in the unity you already possess. Inner healing arises not from external rites but from the conviction that you are always in the presence of God within.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, place your hand on your chest, and declare I AM cleansed now until it feels true. Visualize a bright light moving through you, dissolving every memory of guilt and sealing you in the state of wholeness.
