Inner Report of the Young Joseph

Genesis 37:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Genesis 37 in context

Scripture Focus

2These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren; and the lad was with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives: and Joseph brought unto his father their evil report.
Genesis 37:2

Biblical Context

Joseph, a seventeen-year-old, tended the flock with his brothers and carried their evil report to his father.

Neville's Inner Vision

Joseph at seventeen is a vivid state of consciousness in the field of your life. His 'report' to Jacob exposes how a mind in separation tends to narrate the doings of others to the Father within. The brothers and Bilhah and Zilpah are inner facets—other aspects of yourself stirred by the impulse to judge, to compare, to keep score. The "evil report" is not a fact about them; it is a story your I AM consciousness uses to test its own awareness. In Neville's psychology, events on the outer stage reveal the inner movement of belief. You think you must separate and condemn in order to be safe, yet God is I AM, and you are that I AM now. The cure is not to change the world but to revise the script in imagination: assume the one awareness that already sees unity, and let the scene reflect that truth. Return to the Father with a new report: that all your brethren are expressions of the same life; the field is tended by the one consciousness; feel the reality of oneness and act from it.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, revise the scene in imagination so Joseph brings a report of harmony to the Father. Feel 'I and the Father are one' until it feels real.
