Inner Arrival at Gibeah

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville, the Levite's movement is a movement of consciousness, not geography. Gibeah stands for a fixed inner state belonging to Benjamin—the patterns and loyalties that govern how awareness is housed. When he says, I came into Gibeah to lodge, it is the I AM within you claiming a state and settling there. The slain woman represents energy within you that has been silenced or wounded, calling for acknowledgment rather than denial. To lodge with such a feeling is to invite it into your inner economy, to relate it with the rest of your mind with order and compassion. When you realize you are the I AM, awareness can include any state and revise it, transforming the outward conflict into an inner agreement. The outward strife in Judges becomes an invitation to govern your inner Gibeah with love, lawfulness, and neighborly regard. With imagination rightly claimed, you birth a reality where unity begins in the mind and extends to every relationship you call community.
