Neville Goddard on Numbers 6:13-15 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Numbers 6 in context

Scripture Focus

13And this is the law of the Nazarite, when the days of his separation are fulfilled: he shall be brought unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation:

14And he shall offer his offering unto the LORD, one he lamb of the first year without blemish for a burnt offering, and one ewe lamb of the first year without blemish for a sin offering, and one ram without blemish for peace offerings,

15And a basket of unleavened bread, cakes of fine flour mingled with oil, and wafers of unleavened bread anointed with oil, and their meat offering, and their drink offerings.

Numbers 6:13-15

Biblical Context

At the end of his separation, the Nazarite brings offerings to the door of the tabernacle: burnt, sin, and peace offerings, along with unleavened bread and drink offerings. These offerings symbolize complete consecration and cleansing before God.

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider the Nazarite as a figure within your own consciousness, finishing a season of consecration and approaching the inner sanctuary. The door of the tabernacle is the threshold where your awareness says, I AM, and nothing else. The burnt offering is your total surrender to the I AM, a complete identification with the divine presence rather than with personal desire. The sin offering is the honest revising of misalignment—acknowledging thoughts or habits that do not serve—and releasing them by turning back to the I AM. The peace offering is the resting in harmony, the felt sense that separation dissolves when you stand in the truth of your wholeness. The bread and oil symbolize nourishment and anointing by pure thoughts that sustain your life. In this imaginative act, you are not praying for something external; you are proving to yourself that the state you seek already exists as your awareness. When you finish, you return to your day grounded in the realized sense of being.
