Neville Goddard on Leviticus 9:19-21 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Leviticus 9 in context

Scripture Focus

19And the fat of the bullock and of the ram, the rump, and that which covereth the inwards, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver:

20And they put the fat upon the breasts, and he burnt the fat upon the altar:

21And the breasts and the right shoulder Aaron waved for a wave offering before the LORD; as Moses commanded.

Leviticus 9:19-21

Biblical Context

Leviticus 9:19-21 describes burning certain fats on the altar and waving the breasts and right shoulder as a wave offering to the LORD. The act expresses dedication and consecration to God through ritual steps.

Neville's Inner Vision

Read as a state of consciousness, Leviticus 9:19-21 invites us to see the fats, the inward coverings, and the kidneys as inner dispositions we cling to. The burning on the altar is the awakening fire of awareness that consumes attachment and makes room for pure perception. The waving of the breasts and the right shoulder becomes a literal practice of presenting your current inner states to the I AM, not to appease a distant rite, but to acknowledge God within as the only power. When you imagine the I AM accepting these offerings, you enact the truth that your world is formed by what you hold in awareness. The law and commandment become a daily cadence of voluntary alignment, so your true worship is not ritual but the steady, felt sense that you are consciousness choosing to stand in God. Holiness is not a distant law but the alignment of temperament with the I AM within.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly, close your eyes, and declare, 'I AM the waves of my own consciousness offered to God within.' Visualize lifting the present states of mind—the fears, the ambitions, the determinations—as the wave-offering of breasts and right shoulder, then feel the flame transmute them on the altar of awareness.
