WHATI don't know what Bible u r reading, God is not "hateful or revengeful" in the OT or the NT! God is Love. HE does not change...Jesus did not come to change the Torah, but to fulfill it. I am not sure how your question relates to my opinion, though I hope I have answered it.

As I understand it the Israelites had to live a violent life, and the early settlers almost certainly had to fight for the land they were trying to colonize.
I just don’t think people in times of war would worship a peaceful pacifist god.

And didn't God smite a whole lot of people and cities in the OT?
Like the cities of Sodom and Gomorra for example?
Didn't He also not punish the Egyptians to let everyone else know how mighty He is?
