It struck me as particularly suspicious that Yahweh was described as being remarkably human. I mean, seriously; this God is, at times, almost too human.

About This Quote

All of us can relate to the idea that we sometimes do not understand or we feel we do not understand the motives and goals of other people. This is especially true when we come across a person who is radically different from ourselves. Yahweh, the creator and ruler of the world, is described as being “remarkably human,” which means he has human failings and emotions. These failings and emotions make him more relatable to us, which makes it easier for us to relate to him and his ways.
