god as transcendent and unknowable- scripture
2
otto argues we should focus on gods holiness, as being numinous and transcendent. eg god telling moses to take his shoes off on holy ground (exodus 2:23- 4:17)
gods true nature is unknowable is also central in moses' narrative if "they ask my, "what is his name?" what shall i say to them?" responded to with "i am who i am" this shows te idea that god is the creator and cant be categorised, known or understood.
