What does the Bible say about the incomprehensibility of God?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that God cannot be fully comprehended by human beings due to His infinite nature and majesty.

The Scriptures explicitly emphasize the incomprehensibility of God, particularly in Job 11:7-9, where it asks whether we can find out God to perfection. This theme continues throughout Scripture, highlighting God's infinite nature, moral perfection, and vast knowledge. For example, Romans 11:33 calls God's judgments unsearchable, reinforcing that our understanding of His ways is limited. As finite beings, we are unable to grasp the fullness of His being and attributes, yet we are encouraged to seek Him wholeheartedly in the knowledge that although we cannot fully understand Him, He makes Himself known to us partially through His Word.
