Yes, but when God said Creation is good, he walked around in the Garden of Eden right next to Adam and Eve. Then came the Fall, and humans were barred from paradise and from God. God became remote from Creation that had fallen into sin. As nature was ruled by the fallen angels, God seems to have realized he'd erred somewhere, and the religious hope is that God has a plan to redeem himself and his handiwork. The loftier God is, the more he's implicitly removed from the natural universe, which raises the question of why God is hidden from us. Job and Ecclesiastes wrestle with that hiddenness, and with nature's apparent amorality or godlessness.

In short, I think the Jewish understanding of God evolved over time, as Jack Miles explains well in God: A Biography.
