In this work Bond expounds Isaiah 45:15, "Verily, thou art a God that hides thyself, O God of Israel the Savior." He shows how God is a "hidden" God, and that in strange circumstances, mysterious circumstances, God shows Himself to be the only Savior. Bond teaches that God's great salvation of His people, especially their rescue from Babylon, are commonly carried on in a mystery. Such a "mystery" is necessary, 1. For the Lord's greater glory; 2. For His people's greater good; and 3. For his enemies' greater confusion.
