Inner Genesis Dialogue
Genesis 43:6-7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Genesis 43 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jacob asks why they told the man about their brother. The brothers explain that the man asked about their state and kin, and they answered truthfully about their father and whether a second brother existed.
Neville's Inner Vision
Your awareness is Israel; the outer inquiry is life testing what you hold as real. The 'man' represents a circumstance pressing you to reveal the truth of your inner state. The 'brother' is a hidden potential within you—an end you have not yet allowed into your present sense of self. When the brothers tell the man what is, they are not committing a crime; they are magnifying the current level of their faith in the moment of testing. In Neville's terms, you do not defy the test by hiding from it, you satisfy it by assuming the end you desire and speaking from that end as if it already were. Allow the inner end to precede the outer proof; revise any narration that keeps you separate from your wholeness. The outer world will move to reflect the inner unity once you own it. So the test becomes a doorway: own that the father is alive within you and that the brother of wholeness is already at your side, and Providence will align events accordingly.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the end: the father is alive within you and the brother is present. Feel that wholeness now and, for five minutes, repeat silently, 'I am one with all my brothers; the whole family lives in me.'
