Inner Embrace and Restraint
Song of Solomon 2:6-7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Song of Solomon 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse presents a beloved held in a tender embrace, and a command to restrain love until the right moment. It points to timing as a sacred element of love.
Neville's Inner Vision
Beloved, hear the language as the map of your consciousness. The left hand under my head and the right hand embracing me describe an inner alignment: rest in a settled assumption while feeling the reality of being enfolded by awareness. The charge to the daughters of Jerusalem is not about the outer world; it is a practice: do not stir up love impatiently by chasing appearances. When you imagine you are already held by the I AM, you are not seeking love—you are consenting to your own divine remembrance that love is your natural state. In that moment, timing shifts from the clock to the state: love awakens precisely when your inner state pleases. So dwell in that embrace, feel the warmth of being cherished by consciousness, and let the outer scene reflect the inward certainty. The verse invites you to test your inner world until your reality aligns with the assurance that you are beloved and complete.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and place your attention on the sensation of being held by awareness; softly affirm, 'I am held by the I AM, love is awake in me,' and rest in that felt truth until it becomes your living reality.
