Neville Goddard on Leviticus 1:1-2 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Leviticus 1 in context

Scripture Focus

1And the LORD called unto Moses, and spake unto him out of the tabernacle of the congregation, saying,

2Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man of you bring an offering unto the LORD, ye shall bring your offering of the cattle, even of the herd, and of the flock.

Leviticus 1:1-2

Biblical Context

God calls Moses from the tabernacle and instructs Israel to present offerings from their livestock. The ritual emphasizes worship as the outward expression of an inner commitment.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this passage the LORD speaks as the I AM within you, not a distant deity, and the tabernacle is your own inner sanctuary. The call to Moses is your inner impulse to wake, to listen, to recognize that the offering is the state of consciousness you bring to your heart's altar. The cattle, herd, and flock symbolize the thoughts, beliefs, and feelings you choose to invest with attention. When you imagine offering a portion of your old self—fear, doubt, limitation—you are practicing true worship: a willingness to shift awareness from lack to abundance, from separation to unity with the I AM. The command presupposes covenant loyalty: your inner agreement to live from the remembered truth that you are consciousness, and that your world reflects that inner state. This is not external ritual but an invitation to steady your attention on a nobler state and to treat it as real. As you respond, you awaken to the fact that you are the temple, the priest, and the offering.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume you are the I AM. Identify one minor limitation and offer it at the inner temple, then feel the state you wish to inhabit as already yours.
