Our spiritual and intellectual problem is one in the same, when it comes to getting to know exactly who God is. Due to our sinful condition we are spiritually blind.
God’s word is spirit. And His word is spiritual. To know and understand it; therefore requires spiritual discernment or else it will be enshrouded in mystery from those who don’t know Him according to His word.
If we do not humble ourselves, and honestly come before Him. Sincerely, wanting to get to know and have a relationship with Him relative to His word. Then He will remain a mystery to us just as His word remains a mystery. When His word is no longer a mystery, God is no longer a mystery.
