It ‘is’ an opinion. Your opinion that the nature and character of God between the OT and NT changed due to “Greek thought and influence” differs from the opinions of others on this matter. And your opinion that that change was due to “beliefs change over time” differs from the opinions of others on this matter...especially when the time period in question was ‘just’ a few decades...from Jesus’ ministry, to the appearance of the earliest New Testament documents in the first century.
Some are of the opinion that if someone will die for you...then they are ‘for’ you...and ‘that’ can certainly influence someone’s thoughts and beliefs, and lead to the change in the nature and character of God between the OT and the NT.


The change in the nature and character of God between the OT and NT is there for anyone to see and read. That is not an opinion.

The bible tells us that God is eternal and unchanging, verses provided, so that is not an opinion.

So we are presented with a distinct change in the nature and character of God between the OT and NT, yet we are told that god is unchanging.

There lies the problem, what the bible itself says, which is not an opinion.

Your use of 'opinion' is no more than a means of defense.
