Neville Goddard on Joshua 22:6-8 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Joshua 22 in context

Scripture Focus

6So Joshua blessed them, and sent them away: and they went unto their tents.

7Now to the one half of the tribe of Manasseh Moses had given possession in Bashan: but unto the other half thereof gave Joshua among their brethren on this side Jordan westward. And when Joshua sent them away also unto their tents, then he blessed them,

8And he spake unto them, saying, Return with much riches unto your tents, and with very much cattle, with silver, and with gold, and with brass, and with iron, and with very much raiment: divide the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.

Joshua 22:6-8

Biblical Context

Joshua blesses the tribes, sends them to their tents, and speaks of returning with wealth and sharing the spoil with their brethren.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through the Neville Goddard lens, Joshua is the I AM in you blessing a part of your consciousness that has wandered into the tents of appearance. The blessing is the ignition of awareness that renames scarcity into plenty; sending them away signals a withdrawal of attention from limitation and a confident return to your center. The two halves of Manasseh represent the two streams of thought you entertain; one still clinging to old conditions, the other drawn westward by a higher order of perception. When Joshua bids you return with riches: cattle, silver, gold, raiment, and the rest, these are symbolic faculties and energies you claim in consciousness: vitality, value, textures of life, and durable comfort. The command to share the spoil with your brethren is the act of circulating your inner abundance through every part of your being—mind, heart, body, and the world you touch. Prosperity, in this view, is not earned from without but invited from within as you assume the truth of abundance and distribute it in thought and deed.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, assume the feeling 'I am prospering and I share this abundance with all within my consciousness.' Visualize returning to your tents with riches and distributing them to your brethren, and let the feeling of fullness settle in.
