Indeed we could say that Paul was the primary theologian that shaped Christianity with what he understood about the Old Testament, and what he learned about the Messiah Jesus. Paul was not alone since he also interacted with other Jews, such as Peter and James. It was primarily through the Gentiles that Christianity expanded to the world. Paul had lamented the low response by his fellow countrymen, but he told the Gentiles not to boast against the Jews.
If the scriptures were anti-Jewish, the whole Old Testament would have be erased from Christianity. The letters by James and Peter would have be omitted. Hebrews would have been found to be useless.
God is able to bring forth His work in whatever fashion He desires.
