Inner Covenant Beyond Divorce

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville vantage, the verse is not about divorce in fact, but about the inner movement of separation within consciousness. 'Whosoever shall put away' points to any choice within you to disunite parts of your self or your imagined possessions from the unity of I AM. The 'wife' is symbolic of a principle of wholeness you once cherished—an aspect of your covenant with your own life. The 'writing of divorcement' is the mental document you sign when you declare that oneness is broken and a new alien claim is true. The old law shows you that you can imprison perception by ritual and form, but the form itself is only an image of your state of mind. The healing is not in breaking the law, but in changing the state that generates the action. Return to the awareness that you are the I AM, and that all partners, all change, all endings arise and pass within your consciousness. When you assume the feeling of undivided love, you dissolve the appearance of separation and restore the covenant to your inner kingdom.
