The old testament is not Christianity. IT is Judaism. It was added to give historical context and manipulated into its current state of Jewish supremacy. Do not think of the old testament as a part of Christianity, think of it as a story of why Christianity came to be. As a defense against jews.
The old testament is not Christianity
You appear to know neither.
There is nothing "supreme" about Israel or any of his sons (including Judah). They are consistently portrayed as harlots, unworthy, unfaithful, etc. Most of the prophets just talk about how terrible they are and the judgment they are getting.
There's nothing glorious about being in captivity twice.
Christianity is defined by the man Christ Jesus, who brought the gospel of grace. We know our need for salvation from looking at the perfect law of God.
Jews killed Jesus and rejected the gospel. What kind of crappy "defense against Jews" is that?
Seriously, when was the last time you read more than 5 minutes a day for a week?
The new testament is the story of Jesus. Not the old testament. So youre...you're.... agreeing with me?
[the old testament is not the story of Jesus]
Luke 24:27 - "Beginning with Moses and all the prophets, [Jesus] interpreted for them the things concerning himself in all the scriptures."
John 5:39, 46 "The Scriptures testify about me... Moses wrote about me."
You don't get it. The entire thing is about Jesus. He is present in creation in Genesis 1, foretold in Genesis 3, the Alpha and the Omega.
I will try to make it abundantly clear if and when we see eye to eye on something, but you are way off on your understanding of Jesus.
