NOTES for Isa 55:8-9

When, at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, Russian censorship began to "block" materials about evolution from print, a remarkable epigram appeared:

"How the Creator made this world,
What He counted most fitting,
The chairman cannot know
Of the Committee on Printing"

A person who has gained a faith that he considers true, and which really may be true, for some reason supposes that he possesses the truth itself, that he already knows everything and determines things like God Himself. If not alone, then collectively.

Through the prophet Isaiah, God speaks quite unambiguously: no. He is not like us, even if we were created in His image. Even if we have memorized everything He said, we have not learned to think as He does. Therefore our attempts to build our model of behavior on the basis of what "Jesus would do" are completely useless. Therefore we will always need not the law of God and not stories about Him, but Him Himself, the Living God, who cannot be modeled.
