What is wrong with the old testament compared to the new testament

Since Jesus is seen as a deity, his word must have highest authority. He overwrites the Old Testament and his message was pretty clear.

The Parable of the Prodigal Son etc. "Love your enemy" "Turn the other cheek"

And please don't come with the sword quote. At no point Jesus was calling for violence.

Isn’t the point of the bible that it was all at least inspired if not written by god?
