Neville Goddard on Genesis 49:11-12 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Genesis 49 in context

Scripture Focus

11Binding his foal unto the vine, and his ass's colt unto the choice vine; he washed his garments in wine, and his clothes in the blood of grapes:

12His eyes shall be red with wine, and his teeth white with milk.

Genesis 49:11-12

Biblical Context

Genesis 49:11-12 presents abundance and royal blessing in symbolic terms: binding to the vine, wine-washed garments, and eyes red with wine signal a life saturated with fruitfulness and authority. It points to the inner state from which provision flows rather than external manipulation.

Neville's Inner Vision

What you witness in these lines is a figure embodying a state of consciousness. Binding his foal to the vine is you, in imagination, choosing to ally every aspect of self with the life-giving source—the vine of awareness. The garments washed in wine and clothes stained by the blood of grapes speak of a mind purified and energized by inspired feeling, a mindset saturated with abundance. Red eyes evoke the vigor born from clarity and enthusiasm; white teeth signify nourishment and purity that flow when perception rests in the I AM. Judah’s kingship stands not as ancestral pride but as the royal state of consciousness that manifests wealth and provision when you dwell in the awareness that God is I AM and you are that I AM’s living presence. The outer world reflects this inner alignment, so wealth is not chased but revealed as the natural expression of a mind made fruitful by imagination and faith.

Practice This Now

Practice: Sit quietly and affirm, 'I am bound to the vine of Life'—the source of all supply. Feel the wine-like vitality and the milk-like nourishment fill you, and dwell in that impression for a few minutes as if it were already true.
