Well, with a caveat, to the Jews. He lied to the Jews. And can you blame him? If they are made in God's image and likeness, after all? Much better to call God a liar, than to say the Torah represents an accurate picture of God.
If you are Christian and this offends you, well you remember, there are two genealogies for Christ in the New Testament, and they don't agree, so one of them cannot be true. It's there on purpose, telling you, look people use your brains. So yeah, really the only worthwhile part of the Old Testament is Proverbs, apart from that, you'd be much better off with the Tao Te Ching or the Bhagavad Gita or the Sufis. You must not imagine, as the Jews do, that all these people are idol-worshippers cursed and detested by God, they all have a dispensation of wisdom in their kind. If faith alone were sufficient, you would not have all these problems all these many centuries, you're gonna have to move to a more knowledge- and experience-based understanding of God. A lot of the unfortunate chauvinism here comes from insecurity, people who talk about God are usually representing a brand. In other words, corporate retards.
