Description

The Hiddenness of God addresses the problem of divine hiddenness which concerns the ambiguity of evidence for God's existence, the elusiveness of God's comforting presence, the palpable and devastating experience of divine absence and abandonment, and more; phenomena which are hard to reconcile with the idea, central to the Jewish and Christian scriptures, that there exists a God who is deeply and lovingly concerned with the lives of humans.

Michael C. Reaargues that divine hiddenness is not a problem to be explained away but rather a consequence of the nature of God himself.

He shows that it rests on unwarranted assumptions and expectations about God's love for human beings.

Rea explains how scripture and tradition bear testimony not only to God's love, but toGod's transcendence.

He shows that God's transcendence should be understood as implying that all of God's intrinsic attributes—divine love included—elude our grasp in significant ways.
