Inner Lineage of Simeon

1 Chronicles 4:24-27 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Chronicles 4 in context

Scripture Focus

24The sons of Simeon were, Nemuel, and Jamin, Jarib, Zerah, and Shaul:
25Shallum his son, Mibsam his son, Mishma his son.
26And the sons of Mishma; Hamuel his son, Zacchur his son, Shimei his son.
27And Shimei had sixteen sons and six daughters; but his brethren had not many children, neither did all their family multiply, like to the children of Judah.
1 Chronicles 4:24-27

Biblical Context

The passage traces Simeon's descendants and contrasts Shimei's many children with the smaller families of his brothers. It invites reflection on how outward multiplication mirrors inner life and belief.

Neville's Inner Vision

To the reader of these names, understand you are not surveying a history of places, but the states of your own consciousness. Simeon’s sons and Shimei’s many children are inner dispositions multiplying under the law of imagination. When the verse notes that some brethren multiplied little, it reveals a belief in inner scarcity; when Shimei bears sixteen sons and six daughters, it proclaims that a living I AM can host a vast city of possibilities. The outer fact—the number of descendants—mirrors the inner fact: you awaken to more of yourself as you entertain a thought and refuse to abandon it. If your mind lingers in lack, your inner seed remains small; if you linger in abundance, your inner garden grows and bears fruit like Judah’s line. The invitation is not to worship history, but to revise memory. See yourself as the parent of endless repertoires of talent, relationship, and circumstance. When you imagine boldly and feel it real, you precede the event and make it so in the next moment.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit quietly and assume you are Simeon whose inner states are multiplying. Name three inner dispositions and feel them real until their abundance seems obvious.
