Description

Explore the tension between the accessible creator and the hidden deity in this scholarly study. While Western religious traditions often view God as a humanlike king or lawgiver who is present in history, a separate tradition focuses on a God who actively hides. This book examines the conflict between a deity that is immanent and one that is transcendent. Through the lens of Western Gnostic, esoteric, and mystical thinking, the text tracks how the concept of a hiding God serves as a central theme for sages, artists, and mystics. It provides a deep look into how these figures navigate the space between a God who is present and a God who is absent. This work is an essential resource for those studying the history of religious thought and the complex relationship between humanity and the divine.
