Neville Goddard on Leviticus 27:14-19 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Leviticus 27 in context

Scripture Focus

14And when a man shall sanctify his house to be holy unto the LORD, then the priest shall estimate it, whether it be good or bad: as the priest shall estimate it, so shall it stand.

15And if he that sanctified it will redeem his house, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy estimation unto it, and it shall be his.

16And if a man shall sanctify unto the LORD some part of a field of his possession, then thy estimation shall be according to the seed thereof: an homer of barley seed shall be valued at fifty shekels of silver.

17If he sanctify his field from the year of jubile, according to thy estimation it shall stand.

18But if he sanctify his field after the jubile, then the priest shall reckon unto him the money according to the years that remain, even unto the year of the jubile, and it shall be abated from thy estimation.

19And if he that sanctified the field will in any wise redeem it, then he shall add the fifth part of the money of thy estimation unto it, and it shall be assured to him.

Leviticus 27:14-19

Biblical Context

The verses describe sanctifying a house or field to the LORD, with the priest estimating its value; the owner may redeem it by paying an extra fifth, and the value is adjusted depending on the year relative to the Jubilee.

Neville's Inner Vision

You are not merely occupying property but embodying a state of consciousness you consecrate to the LORD, the I AM. The priest is your higher self who values your inner state. When you sanctify, you set a measure of worth for that state; redemption is your act of energy—adding a fifth of your attention, feeling, and faith to keep the state yours. The Jubilee represents the moment you wake to your inseparability from divine supply; if you shift the state after the Jubilee, you must revise the value by the remaining years, thus accepting a revised, diminished cost. The law thus becomes a discipline: declare and maintain a sanctuary through covenant loyalty, and stewardship of your inner world becomes a natural expression of spiritual order. Your present awareness is the authority that keeps your sanctuary standing, and your imaginative acts revalue what you hold until it stands unshaken by time or doubt.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and declare, 'I AM the sanctified state now.' Visualize the house and field as your inner sanctuary; then add a felt fifth of energy to the image and feel it real, watching the state stand firm.
