Inner Genealogy Of Kingship
Matthew 1:2-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Matthew 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage traces a lineage from Abraham to David, showing a sequence of generations begetting the next and culminating in the kingly line. It emphasizes lineage and rightful kingship as an inner pattern.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within the inner theatre of your mind, every 'begat' declares an act of self-creation. Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and the rest are not distant men but states of consciousness you harbor in the I AM. Each birth marks a shift: faith begets sonship, sonship begets leadership, leadership begets a royal administration of life. When you say 'the king' is born, you are naming the inner alignment where your thoughts, desires, and loyalties stand in covenant order. The historical line becomes a symbolic sequence of inner commitments that prepare you for the Kingdom of God, not as a future event, but as a present activity of awareness. The phrase 'the wife of Urias' and the later 'David the king' can be read as the summons of imperfection and wisdom in the same stream: even from the seeming blemishes, the inner line proceeds—Solomon arises as understanding supported by discipline and festivity of inner unity. Trust that your I AM, your awareness, is eternally begetting order; you are the succession of states culminating in a ruler of peace. Practice by aligning your breathing and attention with this line of succession, noticing how each evoked state prepares the next.
Practice This Now
Assume the feeling of the inner king now: say, I am the king in the kingdom of God within me. Imagine the lineage from Abraham to David flowing through your mind, yielding one enlightened state after another until peace and leadership rest in you.
