Has anyone actually seen G-d? I seem to remember seeing in Torah that there was one who did come face to face with G-d and lived but cannot remember for sure.Hi! It does say in the book of Exodus in the Torah portion called Ki Tisa that Moses was able to “see G-d from the back”. But G-d is not a physical being, and therefore cannot be seen in the usual sense. Any references through prophecy, such as the one I brought or other ones, like those in the books of Isaiah or Ezekial, are always going to mean some kind of prophetic insight or understanding. An extensive discussion can be found in the first section of Maimonides’ book Moreh Nevuchim (Guide to the Perplexed).
Best wishes,
