God (Elohim): Thirteen Definitions
— Quoted on God as incomprehensible, unsearchable, invisible, ineffable, and inexplicable
"God, says Saint Augustine in his Meditations, is He whom neither the mind reaches, because He is incomprehensible; nor the intellect, because He is unsearchable; nor the senses perceive, because He is invisible; nor the tongue utters, because He is ineffable; nor writing explains, because He is inexplicable."
