Leviticus 22:2-3

Biblical Context

Leviticus 22:2-3 commands Aaron and his sons to separate from the holy things so they do not profane God's holy name, and warns that approaching the holy with uncleanness will cut one off from the Lord's presence.

Neville's Inner Vision

Reading Leviticus 22:2-3 through Neville Goddard's lens, the holy things are states of consciousness you choose to hold as real in your inner temple. Uncleanness is any thought that pollutes that temple—fear, doubt, lack, or self-judgment. The command to separate yourself is a call to withdraw identification from those unclean images and to guard the sovereignty of your I AM presence. To hallow the inner sanctuary is to avoid profaning the sacred Name by aligning your attention with the truth that God is the LORD of your whole field of awareness. The sentence about being cut off reveals the ego’s fear of disconnection; yet you are always in presence when you refuse to identify with lack. The practice is simple: assume you are the I AM now, revise any sense of uncleanness, and feel the inner temple fill with light as the Presence rises within.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: Sit in quiet and assume the I AM is here now; revise any impulse of uncleanness and, with feeling, picture the inner sanctuary being swept clean and filled with radiant presence.
