Jesus said, Nobody comes to the Father except through me. The Father demands justice because he is a just God. He said the wages of sin are death. That’s a promise he made and he keeps his promises. That’s why Christ had to die! OT and NT are antithetical in nature because Jesus paid the price of death for justice. The death you see in the OT was conquered by Christ. Jesus and the apostles went to great lengths to demonstrate the connection of Jesus being sent by the God of the OT. It’s not reverse engineering the OT to say the OT God is the same God the Father in the NT, it is simply believing the words Jesus and his disciples spoke. Jesus said he was fulfilling what was written in the OT. To say the OT is a myth and the OT God isn’t real is calling Christ a liar. If Christ is a liar as you are saying then he is a sinner just like every other man and there’s nothing special about him. This is what the Jews believe. Christians believe he was sent by the God of the OT to be the sacrifice required by God’s justice. The Jews reject Christ as the Messiah.
I recommend reading Ron Wyatt’s story about searching for the Ark of the Covenant. It’s a great story unto itself, but it also connects dots between OT and NT using archeological evidence at the moment of Jesus’ death that perfectly ties together the death in the OT and Jesus’ death as the final sacrifice - https://www.ronwyatt.com/new_written_account.html
I am open to any sources you'd like to share with me. I want to share some too, check out the works of Laurent Guyenot:

And I highly recommend reading his book from Yahweh to Zion. I understand you might not because the information would be considered heresy but give it a whirl. You will learn more about the Jews and their origin based in historical fact than what they tell you in the Tanakh.
From the article you sent:
This is true and important. It sets Christianity apart from other religions in the same way it sets Judaism apart.
The author (who is not a Christian) argues what he believes religion should be and argues that Yahweh doesn’t fit that definition, and thus is bad. His definition of religion is essentially humanism. This quote gets to the heart of that humanism, specifically “awareness of man’s duty to his fellow man”, “ways to a higher consciousness”, and “moral imperatives stemming from knowledge of natural reality”. These are humanist concepts. That man can get to God or become God through man’s own actions. The entire point of the legalistic law in the OT is to demonstrate that man cannot get to God on his own. Jesus repeats this. Paul repeats this. It was to demonstrate that we all fall short of the glory of God. No man could be perfect under God’s law. Jesus’ death is the only way to get to God. Without the law there is no sin. If the wages of sin are not death then Jesus didn’t need to die. This article speaks the truth but misses the point because the author’s religion is humanism. Humanism is the religion of Satan. Satan said to Eve, “You can become like God, knowing Good from Evil”. The idea is exactly what the author quoted, “moral imperatives stemming from knowledge of natural reality”. A man “knows” and chooses what is good and what is evil, not God. Man makes the law, not God. Man crowns himself God. This is humanism. Of course humanism hates Yahweh, who created the law. Humanism leads to the clown world we now experience because truth is relative to the changing human experience under humanism. Humans are god under this religion, which is antithetical to the law and Jesus’ death to cover our sins against the law.
