It is the glory of God to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings.
(Proverbs 25:2, NIV)
There's a sense in which mysteries bring glory to God and solving them bring glory to us. It's no accident that so many people enjoy puzzles and riddles or exploration and experimentation, it's just another way in which we reflect the God whose image we are made in.
