Seed and Call Within: Genesis 4:23-26
Genesis 4:23-26 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Genesis 4 in context
Scripture Focus
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.
