Eh there's definitely the idea that trusting in God is a virtue because his will is better than yours, but I don't think it's portrayed as simple ignorance. Even the very first act of rebellion, biting the fruit, is portrayed as simple disobedience. Then time and time again people knowingly sin and are accordingly punished.
