You misunderstand.
I'm not suggesting God or his Old Covenant was imperfect.
I'm suggesting we must consider God's perfect intentions behind His actions before we can appreciate His perfection in full.
It's easy for fallible humans not to see the big picture in the actions of a timeless and all-knowing God.
I'm suggesting God's perfect intention of the Old Covenant may have been, in part, to teach us a perfect lesson about the dangers of following laws rather than following God (Jesus).
It's the difference between swinging chickens and Shabbos Lamps versus walking with Jesus in your heart.
--------------------------
It's the same logical flaw used by atheist edge-lords who claim our imperfect bodies disprove a perfect God.
In their arrogance, these people haven't considered that perhaps our bodies are perfect for their intended purpose which (I believe) is to grow spiritually while being reminded of of the ticking clock of our mortality especially as we age.
A naked human eye that can count the rings on Saturn and fireproof skin are not imperfections in the same way that clouds are no imperfect for not raining umbrellas.
