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.
Rea argues 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 to God'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.
