Neville Goddard on Leviticus 2:14-15 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Leviticus 2 in context

Scripture Focus

14And if thou offer a meat offering of thy firstfruits unto the LORD, thou shalt offer for the meat offering of thy firstfruits green ears of corn dried by the fire, even corn beaten out of full ears.

15And thou shalt put oil upon it, and lay frankincense thereon: it is a meat offering.

Leviticus 2:14-15

Biblical Context

Leviticus 2:14–15 describes offering a firstfruits grain offering of dried green corn, oil, and frankincense to the LORD.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this passage, the firstfruits are not a ritual done 'out there' but a state you cultivate in consciousness. The dried green ears burned by fire symbolize thoughts and habits refined by trials until only true essence remains. The oil is your inner anointing—the fuel of imagination, the Spirit that gives form to your states. The frankincense mirrors the fragrance of prayer rising from the stillness of I AM, the awareness that you are present to your own divinity. When you deliberately offer this mental meal, you are not performing a duty; you are shifting your consciousness to a state you already inhabit. The firstfruits are not scarce harvests but the fullness of your awareness, plucked from the whole ear of your life and made ready by your inner discipline. As you dwell in that awareness, your world aligns with it—less struggle, more harmony, a tangible sense of presence.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine your firstfruits as green corn dried by fire, anointed with inner oil and frankincense. Then declare, 'I AM the presence of God within me; I offer these firstfruits now and feel it real.'
