Seed and Call Within: Genesis 4:23-26

Genesis 4:23-26 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Genesis 4 in context

Scripture Focus

23And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.
24If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.
25And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
26And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD.
Genesis 4:23-26

Biblical Context

Lamech boasts of vengeance; Seth is born, signaling a new lineage. Then people begin to call on the name of the LORD.

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville perspective, Lamech's boast is a dense state of consciousness insisting on its own wound and its right to retaliate. The claim seventy and sevenfold tallies the magnitude of that inner grievance when allowed to rule. Yet you are not that violence; you are the I AM that observes it. The birth of Seth signals a new seed—an inner, covenant-oriented awareness taking root in the mind. When Enos was born, then men began to call upon the name of the LORD; the inner voice shifts from vengeance to petition, from self-justification to trust in a higher order. This is the inner transition from Cain's line to Seth's line: from external judgment to an inward, devoted recognition of God within. The practical meaning is to acknowledge that every impulse to lash out or justify is a signal you are identifying with a state of lack. In your imagination, you can cultivate Seth as your present I AM, letting the name of the LORD mean your inner radical alignment with divine reality. Your imagination, properly tended, will render that seed visible in your world.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and acknowledge the I AM within; revise today by declaring that Seth is your present self and that you call upon the name of the LORD within you. Hold this awareness for a few minutes, feeling a steady, quiet faith growing.
