Rabbits aren't as dumb as other people are claiming. Remember that they're hunted in the wild (and humans are hunters in the wild), so they're going to be skittish by instinct. It takes some time, but if you make him feel safe he will eventually begin to trust you. I don't know if this would work for rabbits, but I sewed a little fleece "sleeve" for my guinea pigs to crawl into, and they feel safer being picked up and held in that.
