"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them" -Jesus
He added to, iterated on, yes, even changed some laws, but he did not "cancel" the old testament.
I think both books are full of barbarism (with particular emphasis on the old testament in the Bible's case, though not exclusively) and I don't respect either one as a guide for morality or way of life. You're rhe one specifically shitting on the Quran and then pretending half the Bible doesn't count. Jesus as a model was a pretty good dude and I wish more emulated him. That in no way makes the Bible, as a whole, a good basis for morality. Be like Jesus, book not necessary.
