The God-Man suffers because he is trapped in unrecognizability.
The imperfection in any human being's unrecognizability is the very arbitrariness with which he can annihilate it at any moment; the more he is able to prevent this and make it less possible, the more perfectly in earnest is the unrecognizability. but the God-Man's unrecognizability is an omnipotently maintained incognito, and the divine earnestness is precisely this - that it was maintained to such an extent that he himself suffered purely humanly under the unrecognizability.
In relation to unrecognizability or for someone in unrecognizability, direct communication is an impossibility, because the direct communication does indeed state what one essentially is...but unrecognizability means not to be in the character of what one essentially is. Thus there is a contradiction that nevertheless makes direct communication indirect, that is, makes direct communication impossible.
It is always painful to have to conceal an inwardness and have to seem to be other than one is.
The way to begin is to deny direct communication - that is earnestness
