The Inner Sea on Four Oxen
2 Chronicles 4:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Chronicles 4 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
It describes a sea supported by twelve oxen, arranged three for each of the four directions, with the hind parts inward.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Neville's view, the physical arrangement in 2 Chronicles is a map of consciousness. The sea rests atop twelve oxen; these oxen are the twelve fixed states you carry within—three facets in each of the four directions. When you imagine the sea standing above them, you are declaring that abundance is not a distant event but an effect of an ordered inner life. The hind parts inward remind you that outer appearance follows inner movement; what you see in matter arises from the life you keep within. Align these inner states—directional attitudes of vigilance, gratitude, faith, and discipline—and the sea rises in your experience, not by forcing events but by reviving the sense that you are surrounded by a reservoir of supply. The I AM, your awareness, stands as the quiet center; you are the one who imagines and thus becomes. The twelve oxen and their directions are your organizing principles, the inner architecture that makes manifestation inevitable.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and visualize twelve oxen arranged as four groups, three facing north, west, south, and east, supporting a great sea above them. Then feel the I AM as the stabilizing awareness and silently affirm, 'I am the reality the sea reveals.'
