Neville Goddard on Leviticus 2:1-3 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Leviticus 2 in context

Scripture Focus

1And when any will offer a meat offering unto the LORD, his offering shall be of fine flour; and he shall pour oil upon it, and put frankincense thereon:

2And he shall bring it to Aaron's sons the priests: and he shall take thereout his handful of the flour thereof, and of the oil thereof, with all the frankincense thereof; and the priest shall burn the memorial of it upon the altar, to be an offering made by fire, of a sweet savour unto the LORD:

3And the remnant of the meat offering shall be Aaron's and his sons': it is a thing most holy of the offerings of the LORD made by fire.

Leviticus 2:1-3

Biblical Context

The passage describes presenting a grain offering made of fine flour, oil, and frankincense, brought to the priests. The memorial portion is burned on the altar as a fragrant offering to the LORD, and the remainder belongs to Aaron and his sons as something holy.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this reading, the grain offering is not a thing offered to an external deity but a state of consciousness you assume. The fine flour is your clear, unshaken thought; the oil is the life of awareness you pour through it; the frankincense is the fragrance of gratitude that accompanies your prayer. You bring this offering to the inner priests—your own faculties of mind—where a portion is burned on the altar as a memorial, a fragrance unto the LORD of your world. The remnant reserved for Aaron and his sons signifies the part of you kept holy for service to God in daily life. Thus, the outer rite points to an inner discipline: true worship is the steady maintenance of a state of grace, the I AM presence felt as imminent, and the self consecrated by habit to live within that perception.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, adopt the I AM as your baseline, and reinterpret any lack as a revision to your offering. See your desire as flour, pour oil of awareness through it, and the frankincense of gratitude rising as you feel the state already present.
