Neville Goddard on Genesis 6:19-20 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Genesis 6 in context

Scripture Focus

19And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.

20Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.

Genesis 6:19-20

Biblical Context

Noah is commanded to bring two of every living creature into the ark to keep them alive during the flood. The instruction emphasizes order, balance, and covenant care as preparation for survival.

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville vantage, the ark is not a wooden boat but your inner sanctuary of awareness. The command to bring two of every sort into the ark translates to gathering every aspect of your being—thoughts, feelings, tendencies, energies—into a single, protected state that your I AM sustains. The two of every sort symbolize the balance of opposites within you: male and female energies, action and surrender, mind and heart, intellect and faith. By inviting them to reside together under your conscious watch, you create a stable ecosystem that can endure the flood of fear, doubt, or upheaval. The directive that they shall be kept alive with thee points to a continuous act of maintenance by your attention and belief: once consciously gathered, nothing essential is allowed to perish in the chaos outside. This is the covenant loyalty Neville speaks of - the assurance that your inner life, rightly stewarded by imagination, will not fail. Providence here means the security your own I AM provides when you refuse to abandon any part of life to the storm.

Practice This Now

Assume you are the ark. Invite every part of your being into your inner sanctuary and feel your I AM sustaining them, keeping life alive by your attention.
