Inner Priest, Fiery Purification

Leviticus 21:9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Leviticus 21 in context

Scripture Focus

9And the daughter of any priest, if she profane herself by playing the whore, she profaneth her father: she shall be burnt with fire.
Leviticus 21:9

Biblical Context

The verse declares that the daughter of a priest who profanes herself by whoring defiles her father and is to be burnt.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within your consciousness, the 'daughter of the priest' is a symbol of a sacred state you carry. The 'father' is the inner I AM that speaks through your thoughts. When she 'profanes herself' by chasing lower desires or external appearances, she represents belief in separation from that holy source. The promised punishment—being burnt with fire—becomes not a literal doom but the fiery clearing of old conditions: the old self-concepts, fear, and habit patterns that pretend to be you but keep you from your sacred duty. In Neville's terms, the law of consciousness operates as a mirror: you awaken to find that any claimed separation from your divine center leads to dramatic shifts in life until you revise the state. The remedy is to refuse the identification with degradation and to reimagine the inner priestly function as always present, sovereign, and intact. By assuming the feeling of being one with the I AM and fully aligning thoughts, desires, and actions with that state, you purify the inner atmosphere and allow outer results to reflect a new holiness and separation from previous bondage.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly and revise the scene by declaring, 'I am the I AM; I choose the sacred state.' See the daughter bathed in inner flame that purifies rather than destroys, and watch the outer world respond to the clarified self.
