Inner Leprosy Law Reinterpreted
Leviticus 14:54-57 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Leviticus 14 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Leviticus 14:54-57 outlines how to distinguish clean from unclean signs—outward indicators like skin blemishes and damaged garments or houses—by teaching the criterion of inner state.
Neville's Inner Vision
Leviticus 14:54-57 speaks of a ritual law about signs of leprosy and cleanliness, but in my language it is a map of consciousness. You are the I AM, the steadfast awareness that never changes; outward appearances—spots on skin, the way a garment wears, the house you inhabit—are only the projections of what you have inwardly assumed to be true. When you entertain the belief in uncleanliness, you separate yourself from your own oneness and feel the world as a place of defect. When you consent to cleanliness, you align with the truth that you are always whole, a unity that cannot be compromised by form. The rising, the scab, the bright spot are symbols of thoughts and beliefs that have taken on reality in your mind. The law’s function is to train you to discern: What is your inner posture? Am I identifying with limitation, or with the unchanging I AM? The remedy is simple: revise the inner assumption until the condition reflects your inner conviction. Imagination becomes the physician; belief becomes the instrument; reality follows the clearer sense of self.
Practice This Now
Imaginative_act: Assume the feeling of being perfectly clean now. Restate, 'I am whole, I am unblemished,' and visualize the signs (garment, house, skin) resolving into pristine condition as you hold that conviction.
