Revelation through concealment: Kabbalistic responses to god's hiddenness

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

John Schellenberg presents an argument for atheism according to which theism would be easy to believe, if true. Since theism isn't easy to believe, it must be false. In this paper, I argue that Kabbalistic Judaism has the resources to bypass this argument completely. The paper also explores a stream of Kabbalistic advice that the tradition offers to people of faith for those times at which God appears to us to be hidden.
