Inner Lineage of Kingship
Matthew 1:6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Matthew 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
It records a royal lineage: Jesse begets David, and David begets Solomon by Bathsheba, Uriah's wife.
Neville's Inner Vision
Matthew 1:6 is not a census of men but a map of the self’s inner kingship. Jesse represents the root of being, the soil from which life in consciousness grows. David is the ruling state of awareness, the I AM governing thoughts and choices. Solomon embodies wisdom that builds a temple within, the inner structure by which life is ordered and made sacred. The line’s reference to Bathsheba—the mother of Solomon—shows that even images in your imagination once aligned with a higher intent can birth royal outcomes. It is not a condemnation but a hint that the self’s most human images can participate in the divine plan when you consent to the king’s reign. Each generation marks a shift in your inner state: from groundedness (Jesse), to authoritative rule (David), to temple-building insight (Solomon). The Kingdom of God is the order of consciousness you inhabit; the outer line of kings mirrors the inner alignment. By embracing this genealogy as your own psychic evolution, you invite the king to reign in thoughts, feelings, and acts.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume you are the king within. Feel the I AM reigning, and imagine Solomon’s temple taking shape in your mind.
