Neville Goddard on Leviticus 12:6-7 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Leviticus 12 in context

Scripture Focus

6And when the days of her purifying are fulfilled, for a son, or for a daughter, she shall bring a lamb of the first year for a burnt offering, and a young pigeon, or a turtledove, for a sin offering, unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation, unto the priest:

7Who shall offer it before the LORD, and make an atonement for her; and she shall be cleansed from the issue of her blood. This is the law for her that hath born a male or a female.

Leviticus 12:6-7

Biblical Context

After childbirth, a woman purifies herself by presenting offerings to the priest at the tabernacle. The act ends with an atonement and the cleansing of her ritual impurity.

Neville's Inner Vision

Viewed through Neville's lens, Leviticus 12:6-7 is a map of inner birth and purification. The 'days of her purifying' are the rhythms of consciousness waking to a new state. The lamb for a burnt offering and the birds for a sin offering symbolize what you release and commit to: the fresh self you choose to become and the old habits you surrender. The doorway of the tabernacle is the boundary of awareness where the inner I AM receives your offerings. The priest who makes atonement is the inner act of acknowledging wholeness, the recognition that you are clean by the power of your awareness. The cleansing from the issue of blood is the shedding of a belief in separation. Thus, the law becomes a spiritual practice: step into a new state, offer the image of that state, and allow feeling to confirm it as real. When you persist in this imagination, you shift your identity and purify your entire field of consciousness.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the state: I AM pure, and this moment is the awakening of a new birth. See yourself presenting a symbolic sacrifice at the inner tabernacle and feel the priest within proclaim your cleansing.
