Neville Goddard on Leviticus 14:38-44 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Leviticus 14 in context

Scripture Focus

38Then the priest shall go out of the house to the door of the house, and shut up the house seven days:

39And the priest shall come again the seventh day, and shall look: and, behold, if the plague be spread in the walls of the house;

40Then the priest shall command that they take away the stones in which the plague is, and they shall cast them into an unclean place without the city:

41And he shall cause the house to be scraped within round about, and they shall pour out the dust that they scrape off without the city into an unclean place:

42And they shall take other stones, and put them in the place of those stones; and he shall take other morter, and shall plaister the house.

43And if the plague come again, and break out in the house, after that he hath taken away the stones, and after he hath scraped the house, and after it is plaistered;

44Then the priest shall come and look, and, behold, if the plague be spread in the house, it is a fretting leprosy in the house: it is unclean.

Leviticus 14:38-44

Biblical Context

A cleansing ritual is described. It involves inspecting the house for plague, removing tainted stones, scraping and plastering, and if the plague returns the space remains unclean.

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the text as a map of your inner life. The house is your state of consciousness; the plague is a fixed belief that something in you is unwhole. When the priest guards the door and the seven days pass, you enact a practice of inner quarantine, a decision to withdraw attention from old thoughts. Removing the stones becomes discarding hardened beliefs; casting them away releases you from their grip. Scraping the walls and plastering anew rinse the mind, making room for fresh, harmonious impressions. Replacing stones with new morter is a clear act of imagination, a renewal of the self from within. If the disorder returns, see it as a signal to revise again, for you are not bound to the prior state; you are capable of restoring the inner climate to purity where life can dwell.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly and imagine the inner house being cleansed. Remove old stones of fear and lay in new ones of confidence, feeling it real that the space is pure.
