Neville Goddard on Ruth 2:19-20 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Ruth 2 in context

Scripture Focus

19And her mother in law said unto her, Where hast thou gleaned to day? and where wroughtest thou? blessed be he that did take knowledge of thee. And she shewed her mother in law with whom she had wrought, and said, The man's name with whom I wrought to day is Boaz.

20And Naomi said unto her daughter in law, Blessed be he of the LORD, who hath not left off his kindness to the living and to the dead. And Naomi said unto her, The man is near of kin unto us, one of our next kinsmen.

Ruth 2:19-20

Biblical Context

Ruth reveals who helped her today. Naomi blesses Boaz for his kindness to the living and the dead, noting he is near of kin.

Neville's Inner Vision

Ruth 2:19-20, seen through the Neville lens, is not about harvests but about your state of consciousness. The blessing Naomi pronounces is the recognition that a benevolent pattern has formed in awareness—kindness that encompasses the living and the dead. When she calls the man near of kin, she is signaling that the resource you seek is a close, ready-to-respond aspect of your own I AM—an inner kinship ready to appear as provision. The ‘gleaning’ Ruth performs becomes your focused attention, and Boaz’s knowledge of it represents the inner sight that names and confirms that supply. Your day of Ruth is the present moment, a shift in consciousness that makes provisioning and protection available. The outer events reflect the alignment of your inner state: you notice, you bless, you acknowledge a nearby source. Practice: assume a benevolent, near-kin consciousness is already yours, right now, and dwell in gratitude as if providence has already answered your needs.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume a near-kin consciousness is already aiding you. Feel gratitude as if providence has arrived, and stay with that felt certainty for a moment.
