Inner Chief Of The Kohathite House
Numbers 3:30 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Numbers 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse names Elizaphan as the chief over the Kohathite house, establishing a leadership within the family. It sets the pattern of a governing state within the inner line of succession.
Neville's Inner Vision
Think of the 'chief' not as a distant person but as your inner governor, the state of consciousness that runs the house of beliefs. The Kohathites’ house becomes the sanctuary of your self, and Elizaphan—the son of Uzziel—represents the appointed ruler you consciously choose to lead that sanctuary. When you accept Elizaphan as the ruling attitude, you are not conjuring a person but designating a mental state that governs thoughts, feelings, and actions. If your day requires order, you may willfully install this ruler by assuming, 'I am the chief of my inner house.' Then, imagine the tabernacle—your life—being organized by the governor you have chosen. Do not chase external results; align your feeling with the decision that your consciousness is in charge. The power lies in the I AM you identify as Elizaphan: the more you dwell in that identity, the more your experiences reflect a harmonized, orderly interior. In that unity, the external scene shifts to match the inner arrangement.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, name Elizaphan the chief of your inner house, and declare, 'I am the chief of my beliefs.' Then revise a limiting thought into a confident, workable version and feel it as real.
