Yes, but trying to understand him with our logic only gives problems. If he is the creator of this reality then I have no problem in believing that he is above that. I know that it is a bit cheap, but heh, I can concentrate in more important things
Seriously, if you personalize the old Testament God you get an asshole

1) It is a conceptual truth (or, so to speak, true by definition) that God is a being than which none greater can be imagined (that is, the greatest possible being that can be imagined).
2) God exists as an idea in the mind.
3) A being that exists as an idea in the mind and in reality is, other things being equal, greater than a being that exists only as an idea in the mind.
4) Thus, if God exists only as an idea in the mind, then we can imagine something that is greater than God (that is, a greatest possible being that does exist).
5) But we cannot imagine something that is greater than God (for it is a contradiction to suppose that we can imagine a being greater than the greatest possible being that can be imagined.)
6) Therefore, God exists.
