In Seeking the Hiding God, Arnold Eisen delves into the profound mystery of divine hiddenness, presenting a compelling exploration of how this central theological dilemma resonates within modern Jewish life. Through rigorous analysis and heartfelt reflection, Eisen tackles the poignant questions that arise when God seems absent, drawing on classical Jewish texts and contemporary thought. His insightful examination reveals how these ancient narratives continue to influence and illuminate the struggles and commitments of faith in today's world.

With clarity and depth, Eisen challenges readers to reconsider the relationship between divine presence and human responsibility. He argues passionately for a dynamic engagement with theology, where communal rituals, personal experiences, and reasoned debate converge to shape a vibrant, living faith. This book is an essential read for anyone grappling with the complexities of sustaining belief in an often seemingly indifferent world, offering a fresh perspective on enduring religious questions and the pursuit of spiritual authenticity.

“An inspired work of constructive theology that will…capture the attention of lay and academic readers in both the Jewish and non-Jewish worlds… “The breadth of Jewish and non-Jewish sources…and his ability to weave them together so effortlessly is dazzling and leave the reader with a confidence that Eisen has fulfilled his goal of providing a profound and honest theological statement.” —Rabbi Dr. David Ellenson, z"l, Chancellor Emeritus of Hebrew Union College, author, Jewish Meaning in a World of Choice: Studies in Tradition and Modernity

“Eisen demonstrates the ample rewards of grappling with God in light of our ethical sensibilities, lived experience, and community. In this intimate, learned reflection, Eisen invites contemporary Jews to wrestle with God anew.” —Dr. Mara Benjamin, Chair of Jewish studies at Mount Holyoke College, author, The Obligated Self

“This generation’s preeminent scholar of contemporary Jewry, Arnold Eisen has devoted his career to studying the spiritual strivings within the Jewish soul. In Seeking the Hiding God, Eisen provides a personal window into his own theological vision. Inspired by Eisen’s explorations, readers will be inspired to ask today’s urgent questions of meaning and faith.” —Rabbi Dr. Elliot Cosgrove, Senior Rabbi of the Park Avenue Synagogue in New York City, author, For Such a Time as These: On Being Jewish Today
