The Hidden Face of God - Illuminating the mysteries of faith, reason, and existence.

This book could be a good read for someone interested in exploring the intersection of science and religion, and seeking a deeper understanding of the mysteries of faith and existence. Richard Elliott Friedman delves into the hidden nature of God in the Bible, the parallel ideas of Nietzsche and Dostoevsky about the "death of God," and the cosmic connections between the big bang theory and the mysticism of the Kabbalah. Through an elegant and learned reflection, this book offers a thought-provoking exploration that challenges and enlightens, leaving readers with a newfound perspective on the central mysteries of the Bible and modern life.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Bestselling author Richard Elliott Friedman, whose Who Wrote the Bible? was an intriguing took at the origins of the Bible, takes on another momentous theme for the third millennium "to point the way toward a possible final reconciliation of science and religion and to provide the basis for a new moral code acceptable to believers and nonbelievers alike" (Cleveland Plain Dealer).Remarkably readable, this inspiring work explores three interlinking mysteries: the amazing fact that in the Bible God gradually becomes more hidden; the eerie connection between Nietzsche and Dostoevsky, who arrived at the idea of "the death of God" almost concurrently -- but independent of one another; and the extraordinary cosmic parallel between the big bang theory and the mystlcism of the Kabbalah. Bible Review hailed this book as "brilliant, an elegant and learned reflection on one of the central mysteries or the Bible and of modern life."
