Neville Goddard on Leviticus 1:13 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Leviticus 1 in context

Scripture Focus

13But he shall wash the inwards and the legs with water: and the priest shall bring it all, and burn it upon the altar: it is a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD.

Leviticus 1:13

Biblical Context

Leviticus 1:13 commands cleansing the inward life and the feet with water, then presenting the whole offering to be burned on the altar. The result is a burnt sacrifice intended as a sweet savour to the LORD.

Neville's Inner Vision

Leviticus 1:13 invites you to wash the inward life and the feet with water, cleansing your state of mind and your way of moving through life. The inner priest you call the I AM brings the whole offering to the altar of your present belief and burns it there—not to appease a distant God, but to release an old state into the fire of imagination until it is transmuted to light. The sweet savour you perceive is the felt presence of God within—the realization that your consciousness is already complete in the state you seek. This is holiness and separation: you refuse to mix fear with faith, choosing the pure current of truth that you are, here and now. By this shift you prove that what you imagine you are, you become; what you burn away returns as freedom.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly and assume the state you seek as already real. Feel the inward wash, then picture the old self burning on the altar of belief, inviting the Presence of God into your heart.
