A recent article came across my feed, and chronicled one person’s personal discovery of John Calvin’s total removal of anger from God, and Calvin’s attestation that our saying that he is angered only happened “because we imagine him to be so according to the perception of the flesh” (I quote from the English used).
Great opening post, Ryan! Isn’t this one of those things where the scholastic doctrine ought to be hidden from the people, as it were?
On the other hand, I thought popular audiences usually rejected the doctrine of impassibility to believe that God felt emotions on our behalf. This is an interesting exception.

Perhaps. "Hidden" is said in many modes.
