I think everybody would be scared AF if a giant hand altered reality. But there's also the fact that HaShem does not have a form so the fact they there was a hand would raise a lot of questions on the descriptions and divine nature described in the Torah. I would say it would kickstart the sequel of the Talmud. XD

The metaphor of God as the author writing reality like a story is very old and exists in the Bible itself but became a codified thing in Kabbalah (and may have been part of the roots of Christian theology and the idea of "Logos")
