Do you accept the apostles creed?, Nicene creed? Athanasius creed? Chalcedonean creed? Were these written with the intent of being incomprehensible or do they provide clear truths to be understood, comprehended, and provide standards of orthodoxy? I am not debating that God is incomprehensible, but I am certainly asserting that what God has revealed to mankind in the Scriptures is intended to be comprehended by man and that the doctrine of the Trinity is certainly revealed in Scripture and summarized clearly and is comprehensible both in the historical creeds and revelation. Those that deny such are heterodox at best. I also assert that such creeds would be impossible to comprehend without understanding the axiomatic truths of scripture and the proper use of logic. To say that the Trinity is a mystery and incomprehensible is indicative of the intellectual laziness and zeitgeist of our age.

'Incomprehensible' is a theological term--it doesn't mean "nonsense" or "gibberish."

I would again recommend this: "[Our Incomprehensible God](https://www.ligonier.org/learn/devotionals/our-incomprehensible-god)" from Ligonier.
