Abraham was a grifter and a con artist.
But understand the Written Torah: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. ARE NOT THEIR HOLY BOOK. THE TALMUD IS THEIR REAL HOLY BOOK.
Don't take my word for it, research away. If you hadn't looked into the Talmud, you're going to lose the information war.

No I get it. Judaism of today is a sham and a fool's errand, because their era of the prophets and the temple came to an end in the 1st century. Without those elements, you cannot have a biblical Jewish religion. The coming of the messiah ensured that since the messiah fulfilled the prophets, the land promises, and the temple. Now its just a dead end moralism, and highly subject to self righteousness and moral hypocrisy at that.
I'm just concerned about the true purpose of the Torah as God gave it.
Abraham was no moral pillar of society, nor does the Torah ever claim him to be. That's why Paul, a former pharisee and expert on the Torah, constantly goes out of his way to explain that Abraham's faith in God's promises was counted to Abe as righteousness (a judicial vindication in the heavenly court). Not by works, in other words without reference to his moral accomplishments (which were spotty and few). This gives hope to us dirtbag Gentiles with our own histories of gross idolatries and self pleasures at the expense of others that same salvation comes by faith alone apart from works, so that no one may boast on the last day.

Now focus on the Noahide Laws. That's the biggest threat to us all.
1991 they were admitted into law by George HW. We are screwed.
