I agree with all you said here. But to say Christianity is Jewish at its roots is completely misleading and increasingly repulsed today, mainly because of how much the term "Jew" has redefined itself over time. It did not even exist until nearly a thousand years after the patriarchs. Then KJV compilers shoe-horned a lot of other terms into the same meaning, and after that evangelicals came along and coalesced even more with it. Most any valid use of the term today, with reference to common theology or scripture, is immediately lost in translation as soon as it appears.

 

The greatest value of it however, is in realizing the two faiths (J & C) are foreshadowed in the OT in the lives, characters and actions of the two sons, Esau and Jacob, respectively. In studying these accordingly, we find the story of all world history metaphorically recorded, even to the present day and beyond.
